If PSU plays on the same night as OSU, every point Wheeler scores for OSU also gets deducted from the score of whoever PSU is playing.
That is pretty much the only possible explanation for Illinois scoring 29 points in a half.
Remember when he sat out his transfer year and Izzo was super upset that he didn’t get his waiver? I am fairly certain he said they would’ve won it all if Hauser was granted his waiver.
Insane to think that Hauser is the piece to pull you to a national championship. But that’s Izzo, always crying about how unfair everything us and they just won’t let him win his 2nd.

Hunter, bless his heart, relentlessly trashing them in the off season probably hurt the chances of that happening this year unfortunately 
Izzo prefers thicc beefcakes at the 5. Bingham is too skinny for him

I swear I heard the broadcast say Young was in concussion protocol too. Which would be a shame given his history.
I think their perceived Big Ten championship snub gave them way more motivation than any Dickinson comments
Young can defend Hunter 1:1?
Looks like Larry put a bit too much stock in the old “you know you’re a good official if nobody even notices you” adage.

No matter the weights, the odds of Illinois slacking vs Michigan was low

I thought Young made Hunter work in the first game. Obviously he’s too short, but Young plays hard and smart.

Young is really good. I don’t think it was a fluke or aberration that year that he was their Torvik POY (or near it, maybe 2nd). He basically never misses shots, fouls, or turns the ball over. He is even an 80% FT shooter

Agree. Huge Young fan and he would be a large absence for them against Michigan.

Someone get me Marble’s post defense numbers. He has to be in the 1st percentile

Has Liddell even touched the ball this half? Hunter’s 33 looking less impressive.
Can’t stop Joey Brunk; you only hope to slow him down.

Wild that MSU has made 8 3’s and are down double digits.

30 years from now, after Joey Brunk retires, having broken Kareem’s all time scoring record and leading the Clippers to their 8th straight NBA title, all of us here tonight will be able to sigh wistfully and say “I was there the night it alll began.”

If Izzo was mad about T Will and Jones hitting a few 3s, he might collapse on the floor if Brunk gets to 20 points

Whole MSU roster is so down bad. Just seems like the B1G is too good of a conference to hang without a star player. MSU prolly has the highest median talent in the conference? But no stud to help the rest of the roster rise up. Izzo should use his presser to complain about whoever let that roster hole develop
