Illinois Game Thread: The Stranger...

Ray Gallegos.  He doesn't make very many shots, but he takes a lot!!!

[49r]

David Rivers!!!

Glad to see Rivers was able to get some playing time tonight.

Yea, Ray doesn't make many but hopefully next year he can get better looks and shoot a much higher percentage.

Illinois definately flat today.  Longer we stay in this game....

Our team relies so much on this kid.

Thanks for taking over, 49r.  Nice Billy Joel choice.

 

Don't look now, but the Huskers within 1.

 

Glad to help.  Welcome back.

Honestly, I do not think Illinois is flat.  They have played well, we are just playing well as well...at least to this point.  Knock off the turnovers, and wowser.

The worse our heart will be broken?

Illinois looks really good to me.  I know they probably won't go on a huge drought which means they will pull away.  But it is nice to see us look good after the Wisconsin game.

Now that was a great play by Shavon.  If you are going to foul, do it right.

[49r]

WHOA!  Shavon with the elevation!  Got the foul, but still!

I think we all could agree that this isn't the Illini team we saw in the 1st half of the season.

[Huskerpapa]

These little two to three possession slumps are what gets to us.  We have to find ways to get quality looks...instead we are sometimes turning it over or waiting too long to get into our offense.

[49r]

These last 4 minutes of the first half...

 

 

Gotta hope we can hang on here.

John Grooce is a winner, turned these guys around.

3:54 to go Huskers down 3.   Don't let Illinois finish the half on a run and we got a chance.

Pretty good game so far. Keep it within 5 with Shavon out.

[cipsucks]

WHOA!  Shavon with the elevation!  Got the foul, but still!

Pavelka called it a phantom foul

[49r]

TALLEY!!!

 

TIE GAME!!!

[cipsucks]

Talley ties it!

Don't bring me down, Grooce.

 

[Huskerpapa]

We just to not take advantage of two on ones very well...

[HuskerFever]

Really thought that one went off of Illinois.

[Huskerpapa]

Should have been our ball
