We are 11 minutes from tipoff and the Penn St/Minnesota game is going to OT on BTN. Because of course it is.

Brad Underwood is not a happy man with that transition D, but Illinois catches a break.

4-4 in Lincoln at first media TO.

ILL: 1-10 FG
NEB: 1-4 FG, 4 TOs
I won't harp on this too much tonight but this is how easy it is to beat Illinois ball denial. Empty the paint, and complete one easy pass that Illinois tries to deflect. Open lane, drawn foul. pic.twitter.com/17hklwpnnb

Has anyone done a double take during these first 6 minutes and asked yourself, "Why am I choosing to watch this particular basketball game?"

9/19 points for Nebraska come from the free throw line.

Stop fouling and this is a blowout and GREAT defensive effort.
Back to zone.. Back to stops.

Knock on wood but a couple of nice defensive plays by Finke this half. And a put back. 36 34 Illinois

Alstork is a man on the boards tonight.

Leron Black has become a big-time finisher around the hoop. Just needs to stay on the floor.

Too bad for Trent the team has a losing B1G record, he would make a good run for many freshmen awards.

#illini Michael Finke has double figures for first time during BIg Ten play this season.

Four guards and Finke currently in the game? pic.twitter.com/XMEz4uy9d6

Awful foul by Spicy.

Leron.

Williams has quick hands. Nice rebound.
— Stephen Cohn (@stephencohn14) January 16, 2018
Just like Iowa game, Williams working too fast.
Relax. DaMonte has done that two games in a row.

It's a 4 point play for Finke and the Illini are up 2 with 8 seconds to play
