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

They've gotta put someone else on that guy. Christie can't guard him.

Carrington

Yeah he's just overpowering Christie

 

[MUgopher32]

Illinois starting to go to Domask at will. Hes a tough guard.

Shannon and Hawkins already been cooking.

Really difficult team to defend.

They can’t guard anyone from Illinois. Just hope they miss a few and we make our shots.

 

[howeda7]

I had the same question. Was there ever another jump ball???

No. Gophers got opening tip. Illinois got jump ball. Illinois got ball to start 2nd half.

 

[Gilthorp57]

Parker can't guard Dainja in the lane, if Payne isn't available, may have to give Big Country a little run.

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

Carrington maybe.

They also have to put Payne back in, 3 fouls or not.

 

[WilliamsArenaGuy]

Just way too many loose balls and offensive rebounds that have gone to Illinois. If we could quit giving them other extra chances, we'd win.

 

[MUgopher32]

Carrington is way too small for these guys

 

[WilliamsArenaGuy]

No. Gophers got opening tip. Illinois got jump ball. Illinois got ball to start 2nd half.

So how is that not hard to fix? How is it not someone on our staff that would make that right?

 

[Dsigma42]

Carrington

That’s not working either

 

[BTChamp]

Very choosey on what contact to call. Very convenient.

 

[Gilthorp57]

Dude, he isn't crafty, he's out of control

 

[skiumah1]

Shouldn't we go to a zone or something? Change something

 

[jham13]

Spread too much to overcome now.

 

[Gopherbbdude]

Whoa!!!!

 

[UpAndUnder43]

This game is incredibly boring because both teams score every possession on easy basketball.

Domask is apparently the second coming of Jesus Shuttlesworth

 

[Gopherbbdude]

Huge shot

 

[howeda7]

They just won't miss.

 

[MplsGopher]

Don’t think 85 is gonna do it

 

[MUgopher32]

They just won't miss.

Every look is high percentage

 

[skiumah1]

Damnit he picked up his dribble - Why double?

 

[007gopherfan]

Need to stop doubling people we don't need to double to leave the wide open 3..cmon

 

[BTChamp]

Don’t think 85 is gonna do it

If the gophs hold them scoreless for the next 6 and a half minutes it could get it done

I assume you’re trolling here?

Most people like scoring

Send it to OT!

 

[leib0039]

By no means are we playing great defense but come on, these guys don't miss!

 

[howeda7]

If we play this way at Iowa, we win by 20.

 

[skiumah1]

Idk man - Feels like we've accepted they are going to score on us. Defensive decision making is just bad. Illinois is very good on offense but you can't let them score every time down.
