At some point illinois fans need get over the winthrop loss and acknowledge sometimes really good mid majors go on the road and knock iff a good power conference team, it happens. Luckily this is how the comittee will see it
Not so much the fact of the loss as the way that they lost it. Up 14-2 and on the verge of running them out of the building. Let them back in it. Up 70-60 with 3:30 left in the game and then just stopped scoring.
It would sting no matter who it was.
