Luka makes Illini sleep with the fishes

[Born Boiler]

Freshman Luka Garza was a bigger Chairman of the Boards than Frank Sinatra as Iowa wiped out a 20-point deficit at Shom-pawn-ya, blew its own late lead on a last-second three, then dominated in overtime to win the Battle of the Damned -- the Big Ten's two previously winless teams -- 104-97.

Crazy game. Illinois blew an enormous lead, then hit a huge 3 to get it to overtime, and then went stone-cold in overtime.

ILL down 6 in overtime with 1:30 to go goes into full blown crean offense mode. Pass it around for thirty seconds and the chuck a bad shot. I was like WTF are they doing.

I thought Underwood would do a better job with this team at ILL. Will be interesting to see if he will turn that ship around.

they also had half of their team foul out which probably factored in a bit

I assume they will hit 15 threes when we come to town.

Both those teams suck. Makes you really appreciate Painter when you watch slop like that.
