***OFFICIAL ILLINOIS AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[Gilthorp57]

llinois has a ton of talent. They are going to be a really tough out by the end of the year. We look terrible.

And they are a brand new team...to have nice things...smh

 

[mplarson7]

It's absurd how much Underwood has owned us since he started at Illinois. Obviously we haven't been that good, but still.

 

[Gopherbbdude]

IL is playing lights out

That's a coach and the refs are afraid of him

Beyond the fact that Ben is not a great coach- he's not a good recruiter.

 

[scools12]

If the refs weren’t jobbing the Gophers on every call they would only be down 15 instead of 21.

 

[mngolf]

Gophers playing like ass.

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

Odukale and Patterson are 15 of 30. The rest of the team is 7 of 26.

 

[stocker08]

IL is playing lights out

Not much you can do when your opponent is shooting like this.

 

[Willwin40]

Odukale somehow learned how to shoot! Even free throws!

 

[Gilthorp57]

Not much you can do when your opponent is shooting like this.

9 of 14 from three is not a winning formula for your defense

 

[howeda7]

Illinois on an 86-52 spurt.

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

I guess Rigsby gave all he had left against PSU.

 

[Ewert86PC]

Are you delusional? Johnson isn't getting fired tomorrow if we lose this game. This team has way more horses than us and Garcia is having an off game.

This 27 point deficit says that it may be more of a possibility than you think.

 

[Dsigma42]

This team will not win with Femi being the focal point of the offense

 

[howeda7]

This 27 point deficit says that it may be more of a possibility than you think.

They do have a week off but it's still unlikely.

The delusional one is you for thinking he SHOULDN'T be fired.

You might enjoy this embarrassing shitshow, the rest of us don't.

 

[Blackhammer]

Defensive effort should embarrass Gophers

 

[howeda7]

Beyond the fact that Ben is not a great coach- he's not a good recruiter.

At least there's his media savvy, public speaking and fundraising ability.

 

[USAF]

Not much you can do when your opponent is shooting like this.

Not too much you can do? How about hire a gd coach? Get better players. Stop accepting this putrid shit.

 

[howeda7]

Betts intimidating Illinois. "Thank God they didn't play that guy until end or we'd have been screwed!"

 

[LesBolstad]

The cheerleaders with the "defense defense" cheer with under a minute to go down by 30. You can't make it up

Fire BJ now

 

[ShushPush]

But Ben's a competent coach.

,

The delusional one is you for thinking he SHOULDN'T be fired.

You might enjoy this embarrassing shitshow, the rest of us don't.

I am extending my hand in apology for ever suggesting Ben Johnson deserves to stay.

<I quickly withdraw it because "Why you?"

 

[nitramnaed]

Okay. Just able to tune in.
Take it from me. We are wearing white a guaranteed win!

Crap! Sorry Holers!

 

[Gopherbbdude]

You can't beat an opponent shooting 64%

 

[BarnBurner]

It's absurd how much Underwood has owned us since he started at Illinois. Obviously we haven't been that good, but still.

He's a great coach.

 

[mngolf]

BOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

 

[GopherBlood777]

Ben showed up to the chess board with his checkers today.

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

You can't beat an opponent shooting 64%

And one scoring 95 points. At least we can't. We can't score 95 points on our best imaginable day.

 

[phifo]

Just not a whole lot there tonight. Defense was totally absent. I would love to blame it on the refs who were comical at best but that would have got us withing 15 at most. Garcia looks worn out from having to carry us every night. Season can't end quickly enough.
