No but there is a very likable , big smile having , underdog who is putting up big numbers in both conference and NCAA tournaments. Let's see if he and his team can take down mighty Edey and the Boilermakers.
Uconn 2011 run was similar. Five wins in five days for conference tournament championship ( with a buzzer beater against Pittsburgh) after losing 4 out of five to end the season. Followed by six straight in NCAA tournament to take the trophy home to Storrs,CT.

Uconn fan here , I have a few friends who are big Illinois fans and we've been talking all morning about tomorrow's game. Over on the Boneyard message board there is a ton of more detailed conversations about particular matchups. There's also a ton of respect given to your boys , they deserve...
