@srrichey Illinois has 17 points on 7 Penn turnovers. That’s over 2 points per turnover. That’s good, right?

Vegas making Illinois 25+ point favorites against Penn seemed like free money as Penn is almost guaranteed to cover that spread. It’s like shorting oil prices right now.

That was 20+ seconds of complete end-of-game ineptness between VCU & UNC. Just all around ugly.

Well that didn't take long. Madness gonna Madness.

@FOXSportsPR @IndyCarOnFOX @IndyCar @Hinchtown @wbuxtonofficial @jack_harvey93 @The_ChrisMyers @Ghenneberry47 @dallascowboys @ATTStadium Your graphic should say EDT, not EST, in the very bottom left corner. Or just stick to ET.

🚨 Sunday @INDYCARonFOX start time change 🚨 The inaugural @IndyCar Grand Prix of Arlington zips around AT&T Stadium & Globe Life Field today beginning at 11:30 AM ET on FOX! 🏁🏎️

If that long backstretch coming out of Turn 8 was at Road America, the end would be labeled Turn 17.

@srrichey With officiating THIS awful, it doesn't matter what teams are on the court or if you've scouted. I wish Brad would just completely skewer this crew post game. No, officials don't generally make or break, but you still can't be THIS bad.

Michigan coach Dusty May is leaving. He's seen what he needs to apparently, with Wisconsin up 87-81 with 0:38.6 to play. #Illini #B1GMBBT

So how bad is @bigten basketball officiating?? THIS is a foul with 48 sec remaining in OT called by an official with a completely blocked view of the play. This is just an absolutely EMBARRASSMENT to D-1 basketball. @srrichey @IlliniMBB

If anyone is interested, the @BigTen is apparently selling tickets to the ref show in Chicago. These guys are comically and offensively awful, yet they someone believe themselves to be the stars of this game.

@srrichey Be careful, Scott. You might get called for a foul before this game is over. No idea what these zebs are watching. Comically bad both ways.

@srrichey Wisconsin doesn’t LOOK like UCLA but I’m having painful flashbacks.

Illinois has missed its last five shots and hasn't scored in the last 3:03 ... four three-pointers and an off-balance runner by Keaton Wagler in that stretch. #Illini #B1GMBBT

@chasingscratch0 Also… recent Patreon joiner and THNF listener. The Boardroom segment is now a weekly highlight of my life. Never change. On flip side, listening yet again from Season 1, I’m dismayed to recall Eli’s 38” putter debacle was the brainchild of The Reverend. My trust is shattered.

@Fieldof33 Thank you Paul 🙏🏼

@chasingscratch0 Is Season 3, Episode 3 in the World Podcast Hall of Fame yet? Or perhaps the Library of Congress forever archive? At least pressed onto a golden vinyl record and sent off to the far reaches of the galaxy on a space explorer mission? If not, it’s a gross oversight

I admittedly trashed #IndyCar with both aero packages they brought to Phoenix from ‘16-18 because the racing was, quite honestly, awful. But they NAILED it today. Some of the best short oval racing since Iowa was at its heyday.

Again, look at overhead angle of Power's crash. Notice how little movement there is in the SAFER Barrier when he backed straight in? SAFER is supposed to give (see ANY crash at IMS in last 15 years). These walls are not moving and driver is absorbing load in back. @IndyCarOnFOX

@IndyCarOnFOX Curious thing I wonder if folks thoughts abt PHX... @IndyCar & NASCAR run different amounts of foam backing on the SAFER Barriers w/ NASCAR generally using about 2x the amount as IndyCar. Looked like there wasn't much give when FR crashed. Any changes coming?

@srrichey Oof. Haven’t seen an Illinois team just give up and quit fighting like this since the 30-0 run UCONN game. Sad to watch. They’re better than this. Where is the leadership??

A 7-2 run by Illinois exploiting matchups for its bigs with a Michigan guard in defense plus a Keaton Wagler 3 has narrowed the gap. Michigan leads 53-48 with 13:09 to play. #Illini #B1G #APTop25

Gold for USA!!! And we didn’t cheat in curling. Winner, Winner!!

@franfraschilla @CoachRedSHS @UCLAMBB @coach_paint Boswell looked like he was standing in the grocery store checkout line reading The Enquirer when he realized the person in front of him was done and the cashier had been waiting for him. Unfortunately the senior leader was completely lost on the play.

@CoachRedSHS @UCLAMBB @coach_paint Much harder than you think in the open court especially the way Mick set it up. 👍🏼🏀

Coaches: “One Dribble Per Second” happened to my team organically when I did not prepare them for this game situation so we practiced it. As ⁦@UCLAMBB⁩ shows again tonight, it’s nearly foolproof. ⁦@coach_paint⁩

@srrichey Undoubtedly 35 of the most pathetic defensive minutes I’ve seen in the last 30 years of Illini basketball. Absolutely quit and mailed it in.

FINAL: UCLA 95, No. 10 Illinois 94 Donovan Dent wins it for the Bruins. #Illini #B1G
