This should be their best team in a very long time, good squad. Good go see some local CPS kids on their roster.

I wish I had some of what you’re smoking. I say this as a big Illini fan. Let’s ease into this thing man.

Come on, T-Bone. Swallow all ten mg. In fact, take two!

Baylor: dead.
Duke: dead.

I don't think beating up on these cupcakes is evidence of a whole lot, but it's pretty obvious they have a lot of firepower. They were good enough to make a deep Tournament run last year and they brought every key guy back and now they have Miller who looks like a real player already. They're certainly a National Championship contender.

It will be interesting to see what they do vs Missouri. Mizzou has a pretty experienced team. The game is really early this weird year.

Up 10 at Duke midway though the first half. Let's hope they don't go on one of their patented 7:00 minutes without a field goal runs.

So it’s Coburn now, and not Cockburn?

Or is ESPN just scared?

Nice win. I didn’t get to watch but heard the Duke team is young. Looking forward to the Braggin Rights game this weekend. I like this tougher non conference schedule, only going to make them better. I don’t like it when they rack up 10 easy wins before conference play and then struggle to get to 20 wins for a tournament bid. Agreed that Iowa, Sconnie and MSU look to be the cream of the league

They were very good last night, dominated from the word go. After the game, Coach K was crying about having to deal with everything like they are the only team in College Basketball dealing with the Pandemic.

Garza looks pretty damn good, but the rest of the team can score as well.

If Iowa is the only team in the big 10 that worries you then you are not paying attention enough.

Illinois is good, but there are a few good teams in the conf

:lol: I havent watched Purdue yet so I can't speak for them. But I would say IU loses to Illinois this year.

Confirmed. Hopefully next year we get the start of another 10 more years of Indiana and Purdue owning Illinois.
