@@Rowgue51 they scored 91 points against penn state without him, yeah him not playing definitely hurt, but they still have other guys, they just didn’t play well today
@@Rowgue51But they blew out Penn State without him, a team better than USC, or at least their record, which is better than USC's record, suggests that. So, that's kind of speaks to the same parity phenomenon he's talking about. I think teams sometimes just have off days and we can chalk it up to no more than that, but yeah, in the long run, with a large enough sample size of games where you don't have KJ, it would definitely hurt you as a team.
@PatOD75 Their other guys really only thrive when KJ is drawing all the defensive attention. Yes they managed to win a game without him previously, but the rest of the team is not good enough to do that consistently.
Underwood timeout when illinoi just hit 3 to cut lead to 63-60 - really bad timeout. USC players were a bit tired and seemed like illinois would be able to capitalize. and then USC responded with a 10-0 run and never looked back. Turning point of the game
so many freaking brick 3s and still chucked them with disregard. they had success everytime they went inside and got ton of FTs. Awful playmaking and awful coaching.
I agree Morez had his best game against penn st and barely touched the ball this game. Meanwhile Boswell is taking terrible shots and stays in the game
Hey tennessee lost, auburn won by two, barely, these games happen when your playing in the sec and big ten. Teams 10 -15 are good. Duke does not have this problem in the acc, they look like world beaters every night in that league. Looking forward to every big ten game and then the post season will be crazy!
Which player impressed you the most in this matchup?
USC is a good team not great but they have some good players
LFG! Do it for LA❤️🔥
Nice work !!
College Basketball is weird:
-Oregon wins at USC
-Illinois wins at Oregon
-USC wins at Illinois
Illinois' was without their best player, a player that their entire offense is built to run through.

That's all sports, triangle theories don't work
This was surprising!
I'm not surprised, it's time to get real. Just saying a team is great doesn't make it so
yikes rough day for my illini 😢
So we can post a Illini loss but not a beat down of penn st? Cmon now just wait for KJ to come back
Weep
Cry
Facts. But they never wanted to see Illinois win, but they’ll be proven wrong come March
Everyone can beat penn state
I hate these 11a.m. cst games because it ruins my entire day when they lose. Wish they only played 8p.m. games

Heartbreaking to lose at home . . . Any TEAM in this conference can beat you on any given DAY . . .

Illinois was pretending they were the best team in the conference, sparty is not impressed
That is not USC first road win against a ranked team since 2010 😂 Big10 folks love to lie on the new teams.
Where's The iLLini's Best PLayer .???
