READY TO DANCE.

Quincy

Fans in high heels from Wrigley to Comiskey,
To be Frank, he love girls tall like Kaminsky.
Former All-PAC 10 captain of mackin,
Now he hoop in Champaign, slash and attackin.


Terrance Shannon, dammit.

The one man high speed transit;
bulldoze Iowan broke h**s and he slams it.
Blockin tourney hopes with the chase down,
had Hawkeyes in headlocks: Illini shake down.


Domask has earned his crown.

Tight ropin’ white Kobe wit the turnaround
Step on the court,
Dix’s girlfriend and mother both turn around.
“He’s cute, for a mid major player”
Well… they learnin’ now, yearnin’ now.

Had to grind harder to get this one due to lapses in concentration. But made big plays, played continued tough D, while cutting down on fouls and turnovers down the stretch.

A sweet way to end a beautiful, successful regular season.

After Iowa cut it to a 5 pt game, instead of panicking and getting fast, the Illini shortened the game and still got good looks. Beat Iowa two ways this season, up tempo and slow and steady. This is signs of a great team.

Always nice to knock Iowa out of tourney. Rest up and prepare for a rematch in Minneapolis on Friday (unless Iowa loses Thursday).

Illini outscores Iowa 22 to 4.

Then...

Iowa outscores Illini 43 to 29.

And then...

Illini outscores Iowa 22 to 14.

Illini playing for dignity and reputation and Dance seeding ... Iowa playing to keep faint Dance hopes alive.

Decision: Illini... 2 games to 1.

And Illinois corn is better than Iowa corn, too. Nebraska’s too.
