Biggest sports day for Illinois since?

If you're an Illini fan, there probably hasn't been a day this blissful since Juice Williams and the fellas took down top-ranked Ohio State on Nov. 10, 2007.
Or would it be the April 2, 2005 afternoon when Illinois bounced Louisville in the Final Four?
Ron Zook's football squad looked competent from start to finish in whipping Baylor 38-14 for the school's first postseason victory since the 1999 MicronPC.com bowl -- and just the third winning record in the last 11 seasons.
Bruce Weber's hoopsters shrugged off the UIC and Missouri losses to earn an 87-77 Big Ten road win at Iowa.
