[QUOTE="BRucks, post: 1367238, member: 5888"] [b]1127 days[/b] That's the cumulative number of days that the Illinois football, men and women's basketball teams have gone since their last B10 wins. Football - Nov. 5, 2016 (438 days ago) - Illinois 31, Michigan State 27 Men's basketball - March 1, 2017 (322 days ago) - Illinois 73, Michigan State 70 Women's basketball - Jan. 15, 2017 (367 days ago) - Illinois 79, Nebraska 59 We actually did better than this in the aftermath of the slush fund that resulted in all manner of player and coaching defections and dismissals. In 1967 the football team went 3-4 in conference though that dropped to 1-6 & 0-7 the next two years. Men's basketball went 6-8, 9-5 and 8-6 over the same time frame. Women's basketball wasn't yet an intercollegiate sport in those days. Is there a path back to respectability or is this indicative of our future? [/QUOTE]
