Wow, Hill just threw the game away for ISU.

[shockerofandover0943]

Great composure from the Redbirds.

[ShockerEngr]

Hill gets a technical with 24.4 left, and gets ejected.

Not what you want down 3

[RoyalShock]

Fouls Gibbs then gives him a shove to earn a T.

[Aargh]

Hill for IlSU pulls the most stupid thing I've seen. Instead of just fouling Gibbs, he fouled, and then pushed Gibbs after the foul, which put Gibbs on his butt out of bounds. Hill ejected. Technical foul.

It was just a flat out shove to the mid-section when Gibbs was totally out of control after a hard foul while Gibbs was dribbling down court.

IlSU still down 3, but a foul on Hill. Then a T on Hill. Then a double foul on Hill nd Gibbs. CU will be shooting throws for a while here.

[ShockerEngr]

dougie mcd misses both of the technical fouls. 80 -75 CU ball 23.2 left

I guess that must be a pretty good effort when you win by 37 without the services of your starting point guard and where the Shocks may have stopped themselves as many times as Bradley stopped them.

This was a game Garrett should have been a dominant force in and he was. DK finally stepped up with what I thought was a relatively quiet 16 point effort for him. Usually when he goes off you notice him more. I thought Tekele looked good and Jake White may have picked up a little confidence during his stint to close out the game. Carl with a solid game. D-Will playing well and making good decisions for the most part. Overall a pretty good defensive effort.

I thought Bradley played better and harder than they did in Peoria. They have some nice players, just not enough of them and not enoughs size.

Nice to be able to win handily and not overtax our main players with the short turn around for Sunday's game at INS. 3G said Joe probably could have played tonight but they chose to hold him out which proved to be a great decision.

[RoyalShock]

Allen hit another deep 3 to get to 4 down with 16.7 to go. CU to the line after another foul. Allen with 29.
