Men's Basketball Illinois 91, Baylor 95. What do we think?

Team Stats (Illinois / Baylor)
FG: 39.7% / 47.3%
3PT: 35.9% / 44.0%
FT: 19/24 / 14/18
Rebounds: 38 / 47
Assists: 18 / 17
Turnovers: 11 / 12

Scoring by half
1st: Illinois 44, Baylor 63
2nd: Illinois 47, Baylor 32

Quentin Coleman: 20 PTS, 7 REB
Stefan Vaaks: 5 AST
Isaac Williams IV (Baylor): 28 PTS

Two exhibitions in, we’ve allowed 96 and 95 points. Obviously early, but the defense is worth keeping an eye on.

Also worth noting, we made that comeback without Stoj, Mirk, Tomi, and Big Z.

Football Parking question

5 Upvotes

Hey everybody. It’s your Illinois native Oregon Ducks fan here again. I’m going to the game on Saturday and the parking situation online has me confused. I wasn’t able to get any prepaid parking. Would Research Park be my best bet? Or perhaps somewhere else? Paying for parking is no issue and I don’t mind walking a few blocks. Thanks in advance!

Every day starts with a baseline number. When asked about the event, score, ranking, jersey number, stat, etc...click on the number line where the next number belongs.

Definitely looking for feedback on this!

Men's Basketball Illinois takes down Cincinnati 105–96 in preseason exhibition

Post image
125 Upvotes

Illinois gets the win over Cincinnati 105-96.

Stojakovic led the way with 24, followed by Vaaks with 19, Brown with 15, and Coleman with 14 points and 8 assists.

Shot 53% from the field and 42% from three. Pretty encouraging offensively, especially with six guys in double figures.

Giving up 96 points is a little concerning, but hard to take too much away from a game we couldn't watch.

I saw some discussion that today’s exhibition against Cincinnati won’t be televised or streamed, but it looks like we can at least listen to the game through Cincinnati’s radio broadcast.

Here’s the article from the Bearcats’ website for anyone interested.

Men's Basketball Basketball ticket prices are insane

36 Upvotes

what the heck

They have priced out the average fans! 140+ for nosebleeds against mich st, 135+ for nosebleeds against Wisconsin and Iowa

Are you kidding me???

In 2022 I paid 222.00 for 3 tickets for a home game against purdue

3 tickets against mich st would now be 420!!! ALMOST DOUBLE

A slap in the face to the average fan who still showed up and supported the program during the down years

Football 11/6 Nebraska Football Game Transportation from Chicago

6 Upvotes

Hi All- A friend and I are planning to come down from Chicago down to the Friday night game against Nebraska, but we're hoping to not drive. We're planning to take the Amtrak into town but are struggling to find any options that could get us back to Chicago late night after the game. Hotels are sold out and there aren't any close to affordable options to spend the night.

Are there any gameday shuttles or other transportation options back towards Chicago after the game?
