I understand people can have bad games, its expected from time to time. But Deshawn just look like a ghost tonight. Not aggressive and refusing to take Frankenstein off the dribble for some reason/

Sims has laid an egg…how many bunnies can one guy miss? They just aren’t hitting any open shots. We still must remember that LLp is only a freshman and will have off games, but Sims has to show up everynight. Gotta get some stops and hit some shots! Go blue!

Solid first half. We actually made McCamey make some tough shots, that won’t continue in the 2nd half. I love the way Gibson is playing tonight. Their doing a great job on Manny but it’s great experience for other guys like LLP and Zack to step up. I’d like DeShawn to hit a couple early shots and get some stops and force Illinois to play from down more than 2 or 3.

Wow, regarding the auctions… is there any question that Zack Novak is a fan favorite?

Not sure why nobody has mentioned this, maybe it’s because we’ve had some recent success against Illinois at home, but we haven’t won in Champaign since winning 69-59 during the 1994-95 season, which also just happens to be the last time we had won in Bloomington before last week.

We’ve lost 11 straight there by an average of over 15 ppg.

It’s just not an easy place to play.

I’m predicting tonight’s game as a 77-74 win for us. I think our only chance to win this thing is if we get into a more uptempo game with quite a bit of scoring. So, that’s what I think is going to happen.
