The Official Iowa @ Illinois Game Thread: Beat them Illini!

[trj]

the officiating is soooooo bad

 

[Hawkboys]

Worst officiating I've seen in a long time!!!

 

[spliff45]

Welp…it was fun while it lasted

 

[HaydenHawk56]

could announcer be more biased?

 

[Ree4]

Welp, we aren't doing ourselves any favors but the refs really want Illinois to win this one

 

[Northside Hawk]

If Cockburn is allowed to hip check we're in trouble.

 

[HuckFinn]

Hang in there. Hope for a break.

 

[ssckelley]

Uhh...we're in position to win.

We are? About to go down 6 with 3 minutes to play. You could feel the momentum shift to Illinois before halftime.

 

[Healzya]

If Cockburn is allowed to hip check we're in trouble.

They generally allow him to get away with anything.

 

[Seth53]

If we lose, we still get the B1G double bye?

 

[HaydenHawk56]

If Cockburn is allowed to hip check we're in trouble.

Yep hard to win against this team, their crowd, and the refs all at the same time.

 

[hawkeyewx]

If we lose, we still get the B1G double bye?

Nope, I think Rutgers does.

 

[thedukeofearl]

I guess they can manhandle Keegan and get away with it

This is Bullshit

18 fouls called on the Hawks

14 on Illinois

Zebras are pure shit

Keegan was slammed on that three

No Call

 

[Dadman]

Either let em play or call the same!

 

[HaydenHawk56]

Nope, I think Rutgers does.

And highly likely if Iowa and Rutgers play each other, they get this asshole Ilini squad again if Iowa wins.

 

[trj]

this stretch here will determine the outcome.

If we lose, we still get the B1G double bye?

5 seed they will play on Friday

 

[trj]

now they fucking call it

 

[Ree4]

Wow they actually called it this time

 

[thedukeofearl]

That nine-point run at the end of the first half doomed us

Perhaps Fran should have called a TO

Free throws killed us

7-16

 

[HaydenHawk56]

Free throw been a killer today.
