GIMME DAT Elite 8 appearance, Kelvin Sampson.
Special shout out to those of us who never lost faith in this team/season being special.
Special shout out to those of us who never lost faith in Andrej Stojakovic.
Looks like we saved the best defense for last. Looks like this team has learned to have answers for lots of critical moments. Looks like, after two decades, Illini Nation can dream fearlessly, once again.
LONG LIVE THE ILLINI!
This glory. Is where we belong.
This really is the season to make up for our previous failures at winning the Natty. Beating Iowa, MSU, and then scUM to win one? That's one heck of a storybook ending

!!!! yeah
I'm sorry. But damnit, I was so tired of all the pundits, all the Houston fans, everyone acting like we were out of our league in this one and should just be happy to hang around.
We're the MF'n danger!
We brought hell with us to Houston.
We played your game and beat you at it.
IL F'n L baby!
