Faint tourney hopes remain with another quality win

I like Tejon Lucas game

Great effort tonight. Nice to get the season sweep. I-L-L-

 

[TooHot4Tots]

Nice win. NW has a tough final 3.

Haven't seen this one all season, lol

Also, does Tracy own a mirror?

Always nice to remind NW they're still little brother

 

[Illinoy]

If we had just handled winthrop and split with Penn St, we'd be singing a much different tune. Great win and I dont think NU is as much of a tourney lock as said.

My dream scenario of 9-9 in the B1G and tied for fourth is still in play.

 

[SuperMetroid]

1 garbage time basket in the last 10:30 for the NUrds. Fantastic defensive effort!!

 

[skyIdub]

Okay NW....go ahead and go on to your first NCAA Tourney.....but not through our yard.

 

[rdillini]

Not always pretty but the end result was W. Team keeps playing very hard. Looks like some of the pressure is coming off and some guys are starting to see some shots fall. Just need to make sure our creator who gets people shots has the ball in crucial times. On to Saturday.

What happened to that defense we used earlier in the season?

 

[dweebs19]

I have to say, the defense that Illinois has been playing the last couple of games has been amazing. Where was this all season long? Seems this effort is coming a little too late.

 

[champaignchris]

On one hand, yay! Great win!

On the other hand, where has this been all year? With consistent play like this all year, how many more wins do the Illini have? 3? 4?

Win two out of three to finish the regular season, steal 2 Wins in the BTT and then hope.

Long live the ladder... Happy for Groce and the players. Now lets travel to Nebraska and keep kicking butt. I-L-L...

 

[jmwillini]

Great effort tonight. Nice to get the season sweep. I-L-L-

I-N-I!!!

He's got the Coolio cut.

Whatever, he made some shots. Loved the team defense. Great win.

 

[Hoppy2105]

Oh how I wish Wisconsin would have taken care of NW a few days ago. That win probably punched their ticket to the dance.

Had NW lost, this win would have been even sweeter. It is already sweet as is, but to help NW continue to free fall would have been a cherry on top.

Oh well! Great win for our guys!

 

[bombayIllini]

Great WIN.

Let us sweep Nebraska.

 

[Adnarel]

lol, I like it

Hey, we swept the Cats! And the players are still giving it 110% out there, which is fun. I'm glad things clicked and I'm glad Northwestern played like Northwestern.

I agree, somewhat disappointed on what could have been. On the other hand, keep it going, keep winning, and let's see what happens!

 

[MainelyIllini]

2 straight B1G wins for the first time in 2 years! Finally!!

Great effort tonight, especially on defense. We needed this effort all year long.
