I just learned that Mirk has 44 rebounds leading into the Final Four. That's the 3rd highest for a Freshman all-time. Who is he tied with? Anthony Davis and Kevin Love...

The way this team is raising the humor bar for the program is an urgently underdiscussed topic
Scott Disick.We were always Chicago’s B1G team.

Comparing UConn’s tournament wins to ours using tournament only rankings according to Torvik:
Illinois wins:
(2) Houston
(9) Iowa
(44) VCU
(53) Penn
UConn wins:
(13) Michigan St
(17) Duke
(27) UCLA
(35) Furman
Of note, we have two wins better than UConn’s best win.
Total margin of victory:
Illinois +78
UConn: +32
This matchup is:
(4) Illinois vs (14) UConn
They have yet to play a team in the top 10. We have played two teams ranked higher than they are. We won both by double digits.

My grandson texted me last night and said he read an article with this stat- Every team that has beaten Duke since 2018 has lost their next game! Could this be true on Saturday? I think Illini win 76-69

Me too Pru. 4am call. 230 alarm. 20 hour shift, then Im free the next three days. Lets go MFin' Illini!
One more sleep 
Can't wait. Will listen to WDWS Saturday morning to start the day. Like listening to the guys. My dad and Loren played on the same fast pitch softball team when Loren was in Hammond,Ind. I was the bat boy for the team. Go Illini. It will be an Illini win. Would love for Jake and Ben to hit 3's.
My all-time favorite intro video with heavy focus on the '89 and '05 Final Fours.
Thank you - that’s absolutely awesome!!
Now prove the metrics on the court. The court is the final arbiter.
I was hoping someone would do that for me!!
