I got a beach home up in Okobo, and a wristwatch that tells me you're not alone.
Illinois is falling in the trap. McCollum's defense feasts when you are methodical in the paint. Keep trying to back down those undersized guys and a guard will come by and take your soul.

Because Illinois just told us to go make them a sandwich
Why is Herky wearing an apron?

Illinois is running 1-2-2 zone, which is basically a triple on Stirtz at the top of the key. You beat zone by making the defense move and putting players in the gaps. But Illinois is so unafraid of anyone but Stirtz that they're just letting Iowa put the ball in anyone else's hands.

I just don't think a lineup with three undersized role players there for defensive effort is going to work against the top of the B1G.

Way to show up, CHA! Proud of you.
Very loud boos for Illinois as they take the court.

The opposite for Iowa as the #Hawkeyes enter the court to a nearly packed Carver-Hawkeye Arena.

FIFTY CENT WINGS ALL NIGHT AT ROME O'DOUBS IN SCHAUMBURG
I think if the Packers win Rome Odunze should have to change his name to Romeo Dunze and if the Bears win Romeo Doubs should have to change his name to Rome Odoubs

It's as if Kirk Ferentz shook LaFleur's hand during the Tim Lester transaction and passed the turtling virus to him like a zombie horror movie.

If I was an NFL player, I might wear one of those poofy helmets just for warmth.

The Bears defense has come out to play in the second half

The Bears offense:

As someone who went to an Episcopalian high school, I can’t express how crazy you have to act to get them to start with this sort of rhetoric
“I have asked the clergy of the diocese to make sure their affairs are in order and they have written their wills.,not the time for statements. It is time to put our bodies between the powers of this world and the most vulnerable”. Rob Hirschfeld, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire

Wisconsin gets a tight end named after the sound Ryu makes when he throws a rising uppercut
There it is. The Badgers pick up a key 2027 in-state recruit in consensus 4-star TE Korz Loken.

He spoke with Badger Observer about his decision:
*Why he committed
*When he knew
*The 2027 in-state class
*How he could be used in the offense
Why 4-star tight end Korz Loken committed to Badgers
Inside the latest commitment of an in-state recruit, and what it means to announce it on a national broadcast.

Geez, Mike. I was feeling pretty good about that game last night.

If you're missing Fran-era Iowa and don't have access to Ivy League broadcasts, might I suggest the 2025-26 Creighton Bluejays?

The guy who scored the winning goal works a 9-to-5 as a warehouse manager for a furniture company. The goalkeeper he scored against makes $2.4M per year.
Imagine your high school football team getting together as 24 year olds and beating Clemson. That’s essentially what just happened.
A HISTORIC UPSET ‼️

Non-league side Macclesfield have eliminated current champions and Premier League club Crystal Palace from the FA Cup.
