Why did Illinois and Penn State score 71 points total last time they played?

[curious]

Was the game shortened due to a rain delay?


Both teams totals are usually 125 more or less. Today the total is 117, up from 115.

Not sure what the play is here.

I think the play is Penn State +2, and maybe under first half. I am not touching anymore Big Ten games this year.

It was just a real poor shooting game and Illinois didn't have a single free throw attempt in that one on Feb 18th. State was 13 of 46 from the field and Illinois 15 of 50 (28%/30%). Combined 6 of 33 from 3-point land, too. Crazy game.

Good luck today curious

How can a team not have a single free throw attempt? That is crazy.

Curious - Penn State also slowed the pace of the game to one of those Wisconsin style games and topping it off with PISS poor shooting...it was PAINFUL to watch. GF is a Penn State alumn, second time a CBB game almost drove me to jump through a window - last one the epic 10 point comeback w/ 54 sec by Duke against my beloved Terps...that one damn near killed me!

I like PSU tonight.

Bruce Weber griped about it for a week to anyone who would listen, and he had a point: how does a physical team in a close game not shoot a single FT at home? i think that we'll see an above-average amount of foul calls tonight in response to Weber's complaints, which might skew towards the over [which is already a low number]. i'm staying away from this one.
