Nice stuff by Mullens, turnover nad momentum swing

There we go! Nice breakout from PJ to BJ. Lead cut to 2, ILL turns it over. Chance to tie.

 

[DaytonBuck]

Every time we get close, illini get a basket

47-43, we have a shot.

Dont you mean that Illinois has a shot??

 

[utgrad73]

I like this Bufford kid

 

[Jake]

Diebs and Buford lead with 14, ET only has 4 points on 1/6 shooting. I think we're going to need a flurry from Evan down the stretch.

Another time out for Illinois trying to inbound. 47-50, 8:22

 

[Jake]

Illini shooting about 60%, many from in the paint.

47-55, 7:04, time out :ohwell:

 

[BuckeyeMafia]

55-47. Oi..

 

[utgrad73]

ET phone home, please

 

[generaladm]

We need to start playing the clock big time. Need to find a way to drive and draw fouls. There's more than one way to score 3 points...

 

[DaytonBuck]

You have to be kidding me on that Frazier shot

 

[Jake]

Motherfucker!

Play great defense and the dude heaves one in from 30 feet as time runs out.

48-58, under 6 minutes
