Otoh, I don’t want MSU to brag forever that they ended his career. I want Duke to go out but not today.

I’m mostly upset that MSU and Duke are playing so I can’t just keep my hate pure.

Argh, I need to find the version of this that cuts right to the crowd pouring out of the stadium

I didn’t even know Opie was an Illini.

I looked for that one for a minute and couldn’t find it. Good luck!

Like the Chattanooga game, it seems really important psychologically for Houston to keep the lead.

Tell me about it. I grew up in Columbus so I know how terrible they are. One of the most spoiled, worst fanbases in the county no doubt.

Come on Houston, extend this lead

I hope Brad Underwood got a used-car franchise as part of his pay package, so he can practice for his next career when he eventually gets fired from Illinois.

Houston can’t pull away

Water will find its level on Cockburn’s FT shooting, right?

Goode with a Frankie-like emergence today

I hope so. I do not like this new version of Kofi with a free throw stroke.

of course Plummer is 1/7 today

Houston needs a couple three’s to drop to put the pressure back on Illinois

I’m glad Illinois just forgot Cockburn existed for three more possessions

Aren’t you listening? This is “great offense” by Illinois. :roll_eyes:

Also, Opie the “Shooter” was 14/38 from three coming into the game.
