Weber will be 'dumbfounded' if Illini denied bid

Weber broke out his stump speech at his news conference Tuesday, campaigning for the selection committee to look closely at strength of schedule.

"I'll be honest, we played a tougher schedule. One, to prepare us, but in hindsight, it's got to help. I will be dumbfounded (if we miss the tournament), to be honest, " Weber said. "If it becomes a factor, I will totally change my mindset of scheduling philosophy, I promise that. What's the sense in doing that?"
