IUBB vs Illinois- 2/5/2022 @ 12:00 on ESPN

[DWB 1,098]

Durr did some very good things in the 1st half defensively on Cockburn, but Race took it to another level, with pure hustle.

Why does Trayce not play well against Kofi or any other big that’s bigger than him?

these refs suck!

Is it my imagination but does Underwood argue every call against his team?

I would start Race against Kofi to start the 2nd half.

GO HOOSIERS!!!!

On the Plummer three near the end of the half where he was fouled, he caught, pump faked, clearly moved both feet: no travel called.

Easy to exaggerate but that’s probably a top 5 all-time travel no call I’ve seen, and neither Benetti nor Hummel mentioned it, either.

I'm seeing more and more of this, both in high school and college games. Guys moving their pivot foot and hopping into shots. No one ever calls them out on it, everyone just marvels at how they managed to get themselves open.

With the way Cockburn throws his elbow and walks, IU missing shots and free throws, and TJD's fouls...we are fortunate that we are ahead.

 

How do those elbows and hooks go uncalled.  BS

I can’t recall IU guarding a stretch big with TJD this year and if he’s not on Cockburn he’ll be guarding one. So don’t hold your breath that Race will start the half on Kofi

I'd rather have TJD guard a stretch 4 than sit on the bench with Foul Trouble.  TJD could get their bigs in Foul trouble on the offensive end, but he can't do that from the bench.

If Kofi is guarding race any in the second half I would like to see him shot fake and drive on him. No way Kofi should be able to stop him on a drive from the 3 point line

He does and he's reaping the rewards of no 3 second calls, no traveling calls, and on and on and on....

On a plus note, the players' collective miles for walk against cancer in this game is hitting an impressive number. So, it's for a good cause at least...

It appears that the refs spent most the second half making up for that missed trip by Galloway

[RaceToTheTop 25,767]

31 free throws in the first half.

I don't mind it if that's the way the game was played, but it seemed like they missed two obvious trips (one on each end) that were replaced with a lot of weak calls.

I always wondered about Coaches v. Cancer.  Who would root for cancer?  I'll pulling for the coaches.

Yeah occasionally you see uncalled “gather steps,” where a guy is still catching the ball; I don’t have a problem with that, really. It happens fast, you have to possess the ball to travel. But just totally blatant, feet set, now they’re set somewhere else…c’mon

TJD on Cockburn 

[sirbrianwilson 23]

guarantee TJD picks up a foul w/in 4 minutes.

[Josh 12,640]

It is amazing how Cockburn throws his arms everywhere and has 0 fouls. Now I know who the one is in the big 1.0

[RaceToTheTop 25,767]

Kofi nearly pulled Race down on the rebound.

You broke the jinx

[sirbrianwilson 23]

How is that not a foul??????

[Josh 12,640]

OMG!!!  FOUL CALLED ON COCKBURN!!!!

[HoosierAloha 30,068]

Let's completely switch to allowing everything without calling a foul now.

Let's guard the shooters too. That can sink us quickly.
