How lucky are we as college basketball fans to get to see a matchup like this?? #1 offense vs #1 defense.

[justingraves]

Iowa state has 8 guys that can start and play defense. Foul trouble isn't a concern. If Illinois is hot-hitting 3s. That will be Iowa States cryptanite. If Illinois turns the ball over, ISU scores with fast break turnovers. This will be a great game to watch.

Excellent analysis hope Illinois and TSJ move the ball 🏀

[fnekkem]

No mention that every starter on Illinois is 6’6” plus. With Dainja coming off the bench. Plus TSJ is an unstoppable force in transition.

[mikesul]

I want to see Illinois win this one because I think they are one of the only teams in the tournament that can actually go get UConn on any given night. Not sure anyone else can score with them. That’d be an exciting elite 8 game.

Great video. Appreciate the thorough analysis.

[relix]

Illinois has had big turnover problems in the past but the last couple years they have really shook that reputation. I don't foresee it being too significant in this game anyways, since Illinois' transition defense is conisistently terrible because of the boards strategy. Iowa State will certainly get theirs on a few of those opportunities, but I don't think there will be that many. I think most of this game from the Illinois perspective comes down to can Domask continue to facilitate when doubled up, can the spot up shooters like Goode hit their 3's, and can Dainja continue his recent hot streak crashing the paint.

Hason Ward might have 10 dunks in this game.

[AnthonyScott-lj]

Good point about making the skip pass out of traps. Which is something domask and illinois excel at. Watching this makes me think IL will get some good looks from 3 or open driving lanes. If IL makes the extra pass and has good shot selection, I like our chances.

[ethancooper]

The best thing about ISU’s defense and what I think can make the difference here is that their 1 can legitimately guard a 5 if he needs to and their 5 can guard a 1

[jrmarcus]

So, on posting up...your examples use two bigs. If ISU doubles Domask, there won't be another Illini under the basket, it'll be an ISO. So, you will have a shooter or cutter open. I think ISU will limit Domask, but open opportunities for Guerrier and Rodgers. Hawkins is going to have open shots. If he can knock them down, ISU may have to change up their defense. Trapping Hawkins with small guards isn't going to work. If Illinois can get into transition, ISU is going to have to be careful keeping their guards out of foul trouble. It doesn't look like ISU has any depth at the guard position. ISU has a lot of big forwards. Surprisingly, they don't dominate the boards.

[KevoUptownChicago]

In the first 2 ISU trap clips the opponent had a big just hanging out in the lane allowing his Guy to help ant the Illini has Hawkins that will not be in the Lane.

As a cyclone fan. I don’t know who the heck is Terence Shannon jr but people tell me he’s good and we’re might lose because of him, but go clones

[beatingu]

UConn got the shaft of all shafts. 3 conference champs in their region and they’re the number one overall seed. If they go on to repeat that would an even bigger accomplishment than last year.

[jakubchrobry]

Or Domask can have a hot night with his turnaround fadeaway jumper, then he doesn't have to always kick-out during a double team.

[KyleK]

Iowa State fans - Let them play
Illinois fans - That’s a foul
Officials - TBD

[jameskrause]

Excited to watch this one as a Wisconsinite! We have Domask and Milan going. My prediction: Illinois by 5-10.

[Schmidayy]

This comment section is heavy Illinois bias 😂

[RawlingsRedsox]

So you had some great things to say but you have to understand Iowa state has 10 guys that can score. If we stop “booty ball” Iowa state dominates like they did in big 12 championship.

[georgesouthwick]

Should be a great game between 2 evenly matched teams. Unfortunately, the winner gets UConn…….and then they get to go home.
