They're 2-15 from 3...where are those knock down shooters again?

And I said I think Meechie Johnson would blossom this year...nails a 3 with 1.8 to go to give the Buckeyes a 3 point lead

And UC is basically a team put together by Wes Miller in a few months.  Not that UC looks wonderful...they don't, but they're making Illinois look really bad.

Couple of interesting Big 10 games this evening...

Like to see Wisky beat Houston...or at least give them a good game for conference strength reasons...

Former IU coach Tom Crean versus Northwestern who tasted defeat for the first time at the hands of Providence...Al had 11 (8 of them on FTs...1-7 from the floor) for the Friars...

Illinois faces former coach Bruce Weber and Kansas State, looking to avoid another embarrassment and scurry back to Champaign...

I didn't watch Illini but you or anyone else say what Cincy did on defense? Sagging on Kofi and let everyone else miss shots? 

The last 3 legit opponents for Underwood's Illini and they are 0-3. Until proven wrong we'll keep saying the same around here. Ayo masked many problems by their staff.

Cincy was pretty good defensively...They did double and triple team Kofi when he got the ball, and stripped a few...

Trent Frazier was like 1-7 on 3s, and if he's not hitting, then they really have a hard time from outside...He got some open looks, but Cincy does guard hard...

FYI...IIRC, the Bearcats are/were predicted to finish middle of the pack in the AAC.

I saw 6th, but that might be underestimating the impact of Wes Miller...he's a damn good coach and has been for a while...

I think a lot of Tarheels believe if Hubert Davis doesn't work out, then Miller will be waiting in the wings...

AAC is no joke. Some very good teams that play very hard. Obviously Illini had a putrid shooting night....well just overall bad effort altogether. Happens with college kids. I do think they were over-rated coming in but they are still going to be a tournament team that we will have to fight past in the B1G. They will have nights when those 3's fall and Kofi get's people into foul trouble.
