Every team has a weakness, and ours is the lack of big men. We have several 6'5"-6'7" types, but a team with several 6'9"+ guys is a problem.

We need to box out better, consider doubling down at times, and select better shots on offense.

Just got home a few minutes ago.

Not sure what's going on with the transition defense or the ticky tack - and non called fouls. But man Illinois looks like (and sounds) there getting away with a ton.

We were up 33-26 with 3 minutes left in the first half and Illinois has been outplaying us on both ends of the court ever since.

Blaming it on the refs is a cop out. We're being outplayed.

Slapping at rebounds instead of pulling them down now. If Lighty grabs that last one instead of trying to tip it, he would have had a much better finish there. When the other team is a lot taller though, the smaller guys have troubles pulling them down. We need more offensive movement.

Lighty and Buford are a combined 4-19.

Yep.

I don't know if it's just the size or what but Buford, Deibs and Lighty just can't get anything going this half.
