I've broken out my go-to Illinois shirt with the Chief symbol on it. Not sure I've worn it this football or basketball season, yet. Illini flip-flops and I'm ready to go.

ncaa.com is telling me 10:25 EST for the start time now...and I'm on the east coast. That alarm is going to feel early tomorrow...

Zags game ran kinda late. 7:25 tip out here. They just swtched to the UCLA game for the west coast, so the NCAA CBS.com better work tonight!

well everyone has been concerned about playing defense without Chet...but I say it is very different. We don't shoot 40 percent or better...we don't win. Hope the basket gods are with us tonight
Ormazd

Is Chet in uniform?

Not impressive...

What was MD doing on that shot? He just floated out of bounds when he would have had an easy putback.

Boy I just dont like the way we look on offense so far
junkieball
Mar 19 2009, 08:34 PM
this is going to be very tough from the early looks of it.
Keenstein
Mar 19 2009, 08:34 PM
Not the start we want... lots of people trying to do too much. Calm down, play some defense, get back on D, run the offense.

i really wish that when one Mike was shooting the other would get his Arse under the rim for a rebound...

Legion doesn't have a clue defensively.

I've busted out my 2005 shirt, "I Love Head" shirt. I might be changing to another shirt with the way our offense is looking thus far, come on guys!

Illinois looking very lethargic so far.

We look scared, they look aggresive. Not good. Did McCamey forget how to dribble? He's lost the handle a bunch of times already.
