The Illini will try to run that play to Cockburn three or four more times unsuccessfully coming out of the half before Underwood figures out Porter has adjusted his defense for it. Same thing would happen when teams matched up with Majerus. WUH likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BilliesBy40 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Near perfect half by Loyola. They’re the better team right now. Illinois needs to work through their guards more or this one is over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianstl Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Well the adjustment isn’t working. Jodi is just too strong. They got to deny him the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARon Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 For those who want us to go to the MVC so we would “dominate”....this Loyola team would have taken us apart post-COVID and maybe even pre-COVID. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franchise_08 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Loyola plays just gorgeous basketball. They are exploiting Ayo unwillingness to play defense and his lack of outside shot. Nice game plan so far. Lando Griffin likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A10Ref Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Loyola is going to win this. This win is way more impressive than anything in 18. Which means this team is better than that. Watch out. BilliesBy40 likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are other reasons to see for moving to MVC imo. Roots is main reason I would like moving, integrity geographically and historically next. Mainly the former, every game is doable. If Liddle the current was here his family could make it to most games and be home by 2. And of course Arch Madness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BilliesBy40 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Porter has dialed up some defensive changes with perfect timing. That press was a great call. A shame the ensuing 3 attempt didn’t call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slufan13 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Loyola defense is great but their offense has so much more of a purpose than ours.

Joined 7-10 years later. Quick story about the history... SLU thought that Washington University kept them out of the MVC in 1907. Later, Washington University thought that SLU kept them from playing the conference teams when the Bears left the Valley in 1942.
