Illinois down 24-15 14 minutes into the game against Northwestern.

On cue, Illinois has only been called for 2 fouls in 14 minutes.

What a surprise 

[Hoosierfan1901 6,968]

NW FG%: 38.8%
NW 3%: 6-9

Illinois FG: 40%
Illinois 3%: 0%
 

NW leads by 9

Fun

Northwestern clownstomping Illinois in the first half.

Northwestern 37-19 at half.

[Stuhoo 85,041]

Buie with 22 at the half.

Northwestern by 18 at the half.

wow

[RaceToTheTop 28,107]

Consider this:

Illinois' seven home-and-aways in the Big Ten:

Northwestern

Indiana

Penn State

Wisconsin

Ohio State

Nebraska

Minnesota

That's all five teams with losing conference records.  And unless they can outscore Northwestern by 19 or more in the second half, the two teams with winning records they faced in conference they will have went 0-4 against.

If Michigan can pull off this upset at Rutgers, it would help IU immensely in getting a double bye in the BTT!

Mayer with his patented lean-in flop on a three point shot.  Gets three free throws.

[RaceToTheTop 28,107]

12-2 Illinois run.  Within 8.

[Uspshoosier 49,820]

Michigan up 8 with 3 min to go 

[RaceToTheTop 28,107]

Just as quickly as Illinois got within 4, they give it back up.  Northwestern up 14 at the under 12.

Strong possibility that road teams go 3-3 tonight in the Big Ten.  Rare.

[RaceToTheTop 28,107]

Michigan in control late in the game.  Look out for a Mulcahy trip.

[RaceToTheTop 28,107]

Second Matt Mayer 'fouled' on a three point shot.

[RaceToTheTop 28,107]

Another Illinois run.  Going to the line trying to cut the lead back down to 7.

If we could get Ill and Michigan tied with Maryland and us we can win that tiebreaker.

Watching the Illinois/Northwestern game and I have no idea what a foul is apparently.  Not even like it's been one sided...just so inconsistent.

I think I figured out what a foul is.  Any breath on Mayer.

Illinois up 1, 42 seconds left, Illini ball.

Selfish play by Boie there.  Looked like he decided he was going to shoot it no matter what.  Wasn't even close to having a good look.
