If someone has a magic potion to heal Nate I suggest you please use it.

We have to attack this team, Deon and Wes need to attack every possession and I think Seth should dominate down low.

As long as we don't have Zelton Steed as an official I think we have a good chance to win

Re: Up Next: Illinois State

Zelton Sneed and Eric Curry, the two worst referees in D1 basketball.

Zelton Sneed and Eric Curry, the two worst referees in D1 basketball.

Quoted for absolute truth.

Re: Up Next: Illinois State

Guys he's just mad at the world for being named Zelton. I'm sure he'd have preferred even Sue. Can't blame him

[achrist70]

Re: Up Next: Illinois State

Add Ronald Simmons and James Durham to the list, but I mean how do we get Zelton twice in a week and a half, that I consider cruel and unusual punishment

[panther-state]

Re: Up Next: Illinois State

1 hour until game time. I know we don't have Buss, Deon is banged up and we're one the road...but I think we will win tonight. I feel this is the game that gets our annual streak started (yes that does me it will carry on into the weekend )

GO PANTHERS!!!!

Re: Up Next: Illinois State

Jeremy Morgan is getting the start tonight. Makes sense with their 4 guard lineup

[panther-state]

Re: Up Next: Illinois State

Jeremy Morgan will start for UNI tonight. I assume Ben is trying to counter ISU's smaller lineup

Edit: Damn you HOP

Re: Up Next: Illinois State

Another great opportunity to steal one on the road.

Re: Up Next: Illinois State

On paper it looks like Tuttle is going to be in for another monster effort

Working, but just audio from IllState.

Re: Up Next: Illinois State

Redbirds seem pretty intent on shooting from the perimeter. Not sure yet if that's good or bad
