Before the game, I was thinking, is it too much to ask for another game like the Wake Forest game? Maybe not...

 

[The Sprouting Divot]

Oh, and this game was the lead story on PTI...the question was should UM be the overall no. 1 if they win...Wilbon doubled down saying they won’t.

He may be our 05 Bill Murray

Not sure if this is supposed to be complementary of Murray, but I don't think there's room for Wilbon on the bandwagon.

 

[MaineIllini]

A step back three from that distance, wow.

 

[logjam]

Things are clicking, this has been such a fun season, soaking it in.....

 

[Retro62]

Oh my!

 

[hoopsfan47]

Few teams ...if any....that have all the tools to defend like these Illini....incredible focus and effort.

 

[Dre]

[FromTheLogo]

They do not know how to handle this suffocating D!

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

Are we good? I think we might be good.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Win or lose, this is the energy and defensive effort we need to bring for 40 minutes every game.

 

[Miles Leonard]

Still far from over guys, but this is nice!

 

[Hopingfor500]

Long way to go fellas. Solid defense.

 

[EyeoftheIllini]

Loving it. But still way too much time left to go crazy.

 

[JSpence]

nah, Juwan is thinknig, "Sure, go ahead and win this one. We'll just beat you in the Final 4 on a last second tip-in.....when it really matters.

I'm sorry, do they have Ayo and we don't?
