Wisconsin turns Illini's NCAA dream into nightmare
March 8, 2010 9:08 AM
"It's not the end of the world," Illini center Mike Tisdale said. "It just feels like it."
While Illinois has another chance in the Big Ten tournament, a 15-point loss at home puts an exclamation point on losing five of its last six games in the regular season. The Illini left another bad impression with little time for the selection committee to forget.
From here, the Illini are on the outside looking in. Only a big run in Indianapolis will get the Illini into the NCAAs for the second straight year after missing the postseason in 2008.
