[QUOTE="Illinifan533, post: 1423280, member: 328762"] All the game already mentioned in this thread are great and I could have very easily put them in this list. 5. 2011 game against Arizona State. I believe Illinois' defense sacked Brock Osweiler 8 times. Arizona State looked like an early dark-horse for the Pac-12 that season (before they lost their last 5 to go 6-7) and the win started to generate a bit of buzz about that Illini team. 4. 2013 when Illinois trounced Cincinnati early in the season and it looked like the team might be decent after a disastrous 2012. 3. 2017-Illinois beats MSU 73-70. This may seem like an odd choice but I'll never forget the energy in SFC and how the team showed up that night to keep their tournament chances alive. Only problem was that many on this board knew that a return to the tourney would probably result in Groce staying and continuing the mediocrity train. 2. 2012-Brandon Paul drops 43 on the #5 ranked Buckeyes and the Illini win 79-74 to propel the team to 15-3 and into the Top 25. This would be the last high moment for the Bruce Weber era as the team would finish the season 2-12. 1. Hard to top the upset over Indiana in 2013. [/QUOTE]
