Maryland 59, Illinois 58

Absolute disaster late for Illinois.

With 2.1 seconds left, Maryland hit first of two free throws to go up 59-58 on Illinois. Brad Underwood then used his final timeout between FTs.

Maryland intentionally missed and Illinois didn't get a shot off before buzzer.

That's coaching malpractice -- as dumb as it gets.
