Dec. 2 - Clemson v. Illinois - Last 6 Minutes

[nmullins20]

@jboycep That's really a shame. These two teams would probably provide an exciting rematch.

[Ultimaxkeyblade]

one year later, exact thing but just the other way

go illini

[dsacre13]

Ya grapes they are awesom

[Grapes428]

Illini's recruiting class this season has 2 McDonald's All-Americans in D.J. Richardson and Brandon Paul. Both if anything have more talent and quickness than Meacham and Frazier did. Hopefully these 2 guys plus Bertrand will prove everyone wrong who have been questioning Bruce Weber's recruiting capabilities.

dont forget jereme richmond coming next year.

[dietsnapple89]

Manny Harris is sick wit it, but Clemson shoulda owned Michigan! Clemson got lucky to get away with a win last season, but Illinois is going to DESTROY Clemson in their own house. Its not even a question either, Illinois Orange is the best in the country. No one in the country even thinks of Clemson when they think of school colors! Only other school worth mentioning with Orange in their colors is Syracuse.

[Beastmode355]

wtf bechamfreak Illinois has a recruiting class next year ranked in the top 10 in the nation so why r u hatin on Illinois. Oh and if you think the Big 10s weak than how come you lost to Michigan

[beckhamfreak]

poor illinois. faces clemson at littlejohn next year. gonna be ugly.

[nmullins20]

bahaha, was ugly except illinois has some great athletes (not that clemson doesn't) and a better coach.

[Ty4thek0]

hahah if u mean ugly by them blowing a 20pt lead

[BMBender129]

this was such a great game, but had such a disappointing ending.

[enerfulish]

go tigers

[BobaFettTDG]

Not getting a shot off at the end qualifies as an EPIC FAIL.

[sammyboy1111]

yep

[volusiasorange]

1997 and 1998...

WGAF

GO TIGERS

[BcL07]

C-L-E-M-S-O-----N!!!!!

[lordseal92]

Someone needs to post that Trevor Booker block, that was awesome!

[ebalexan]

Like when Illinois beat Clemson in 1997 and 1998?

[aggravateddui]

Jamar would have hit the shot even with a .16 BAC. Drinks on Bruth!

[beckhamfreak]

clemson will always own illinois in everything.

[ILLINOISLOYALTY1]

they won by 2. that isn't owning

[beckhamfreak]

owned owned owned

clemson wears the real orange

[xcrunner409x]

get owned in 09 baby!

[beckhamfreak]

lucky break son!

[nmullins20]

do you actually believe that?

[beckhamfreak]

the real orange or the owned part?

its definitely the real orange.

owned doesn't mean that we blew illinois out.

You do however own the NIT Appearances..

[nmullins20]

You guys simply outplayed a better program, congrats on that. However, we all know that Clemson's Orange is not comparable to Illini Orange. Not to mention you wear yours with that ugly purple. We are good in many sports and have a rich tradition. You have put athletes in the pros like Brian Dawkins, Terry Allen, Larry Nance, and Khalil Greene. We have Deron Williams, Kendall Gill, Red Grange, George Halas, Jim Grabowski, Dike Eddleman, Dick Butkus, Ray Nitschke, John "Red" Kerr. Your reply?

[cletiger10]

@nmullins20 Why don't you look at where the "big 3" sports are today for each school as a program? In basketball, yall probably have us beat, but barely as of today. In football, we have yall beat, but not by a whole lot. In baseball, well, that's simply no contest. I've never heard anything at all from Illinois' baseball program. Therefore, Clemson wins.

[nmullins20]

@cletiger10 You are comparing current programs. In that case you win the "Big 3" sports 2 to 1, but if you compare the histories of these sports, we win 2 to 1. Illinois has 5 national championships in football to your 1, and much better players and tradition. 2010 you win, duration of the programs Illini Orange prospers

[beckhamfreak]

you have a nice history.

we won.

[nmullins20]

Both true, but we're obviously the real orange and the better program.

[beckhamfreak]

I'm not arguing about programs. I'm not agreeing with you but I'm not arguing about programs. I wasn't around long enough to know what Clemson's program has or hasn't accomplished.

The important argument revolves around the color, and there is absolutely no way Clemson's orange is not the REAL orange.

Ours seems to be just a shade darker and that makes all the difference. Both better than Tennesse or Texas orange but I gotta say Clemson orange wins...

[Ty4thek0]

your fucking retarded, stop talking out your ass, illinois has been in every ncaa tourny since 1996, cept for 1999. get owned.

[beckhamfreak]

please don't talk, child.

you didn't win the game. clemson lost it. on our worst day of the year you still barely beat us. so enjoy it. pray you don't face us in the tournament.

[Ty4thek0]

lmfao? id say rallying would be winning. you claim it was your worst day just because you got anally raped? I pray we play you in the tourny for an easy win.

PS we'd be the favorite by then

[beckhamfreak]

dream on child. poor kiddo.

[cletiger10]

@Ty4thek0 oh really, since Illinois finished the 07-08 year with a 16-19 record? did you get into the tourney that year? really impressive

[xcrunner409x]

really now?? tell me how clemson blew a 20 pt lead at the half to the illini in 2009? get some!
