Ok my Illini Family... would you rather have Feliz or Curbelo?

Curbelo...but Feliz created the dog mentality.

Superb!

It's pretty clearly 1989 and 2005 and 2021 as our best ever teams......in no particular order. 7 more wins and we can then rank them!!!

1989 = FF 2005 = NC Game 2021 = NC winner?

Antigua, Chin, and Gentry ... an embarrassment of riches.

Kofi has to be the pregame favorite for MOP so far

Think it actually might be close between kofi and ayo

in two games kofi is avg 22 pts, 10 boards, .5 assists, 1 block

ayo is 20.5 pts, 6 boards, 7.5 assists, 1.5 steals

Might give a slight edge to ayo

As long as its one of our guys im good with it either way, bc it probably means we won

Line predictions for game tomorrow?

Illinois -2 is my guess. It’s decreased each game

edit: huh -5.5. Higher than I expected

Might reflect 4th game in 4 days for tOSU.

Curious to defensive adaptations for OSU. Need to put a cap on Liddell.

 

[Illini_Jack]

I'm so pumped about this team I'm not sure I'll sleep tonight

 

[Boomauer]

So... status of Kyle Young? We gotta make them pay if Liddell guards Kofi down low.

Zed Key's gigantic derriere will be banging Kofi down low...he's a load.

If they can mix comic universes, I can too. Batman, Incredible Hulk, and the Flash (Curbelo).

 

[illiniapolis]

Illinois by 5.5 makes perfect sense. We beat Rutgers by 22, Iowa by 11, so we should win our next by exactly 5.5

 

[Turpin & Tate in 2008!]

Or else Juwan Howard is going after Kevin Warren.

But only because Warren charged at him.

 

[Chukwuwumba]

It was mentioned in the post game presser that Young is a no go.

Ohio State coach Chris Holtmann gives injury update on Kyle Young before B1G Tournament final

Kyle Young suffered a concussion vs. Purdue on Friday.

And you've got 1 less hour to sleep, don't forget.

I don't remember what it's like to lose. This is fun.

Don’t forget Alexander. Having him on staff is a huge luxury.

Noooo!

 

[Illinifan533]

I have a feeling by the 2nd half we're all going to see that Illinois-Iowa was the true tournament title game.

 

[JJE]

Just throwing it out there. If we win tomorrow, that means Kevin Warren has to hand the tournament trophy to Underwood and the team. Awkward! I'd love to see one of the players have a Kanye moment and grab the microphone.
