It's always all about Mom. He's outlawed these days but Bill Cosby had a great bit about athletes looking into the camera and saying, "Hi Mom".
that shot by tomi that just.. almost.. barely bounced over the front of the rim and in was enormous. i can't remember the score but that was the start of two plays and baskets for tomi and the beginning of the end for Iowa.
My favorite stat, outside of 4-0.

FINAL FOUR BOUND !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This game aged me 10 years but I feel no pain right now.............what a great team we have..............we really really do !!!!!!!
We started off as slow as I can remember falling behind 12-2 and honestly I was having serious concerns about our play , but we have been a force in the second halves of the last 10 +games..........the adjustments being made at halftime have been spot on and have brought us to another rung reached in our quest for GREATNESS !!!!!!!!!!!

This narrative really needs to stop.
Did he smash it?
Turn off the internet. You win.My grandmother raised me and is THE reason I'm a sports and Illini fan(as well as the Cubs, Bears, Bulls, and Blackhawks, but the Illini were her favorite out of all of them). We called her Mamey. She died on my birthday in 2021 from cancer. I never get that emotional, but I'm really emotional and teary-eyed right now. She would've LOVED this! I love you, Mamey! This is for you.
Nice family tradition.
My folks finally moved here to Houston from Springfield 5 years ago. We went to the game Thursday and are now thinking about going to Indy where we have a lot of family.
BTW, I was just n Chandler last weekend. I hope it’s cooled off there, it was brutal last weekend.
Anybody got the gif of Big Z’s celebration dance? 
We building the Whitman statue yet? This has to be the best prolonged run for Illinois athletics in.. ever?
He doesnt give 1 schitt about you…just another old guy in his armchair. These players know your type.

Not according to McCollum at the presser
Not to go full Tim Beckman, but after that "as bad as it could go" start this team outscored Iowa 69 - 47 over the remaining 35.5 minutes.
Absolutely insane performance after the first media timeout.
