I can’t wait to hear Gard whine about it.
Illinois 91, Wisconsin 83 Postgame
Tennessee and Purdue only other losses there this year. Impressive
We could easily jump Purdue for second in offense on Kenpom - we are 0.1 behind them and they play MSU today.
Man, those games in their self-made dungeon basement really had to have been something.Fun fact: One of Marcus’ sisters was all-conference in college and claimed she was a better rebounder. Marcus agreed
Well, Marquette is losing right now....
Pregame: Illinois at Wisconsin, Saturday, March 2nd, 12:00pm CT, BTN
Beat Wisconsin, Purdue beats Michigan St. Lose to Wisconsin, Michigan St. beats Purdue. Life as a sport fan Sparty is due a huge win. I'll put all my eggs in that basket

Now for Sparty to do their part
No props on the correct call guys sheesh lol?
There must have been contact on at least 18 of the 21 shots that Domask took. Not sure how to officiate those but there were certainly many fouls that could have been called on Marcus or on his defender. One time Wahl literally grabbed and held him for three seconds and Marcus still made the bucket, but no foul.
I can't remember, but sometime in the final minutes when Domask spun and went with his left, the showed a replay several times, Wahl grabbed him with each hand and fouled the crap outta him...especially with the way they called some of the other ticky tack crap.

Anyone have a clip of it? I was watching on my phone while my husband and I were brewery hopping and didn't catch it

Damn. We should have kept Groce then. He’s clearly the better coach since he made the S16 & Brad hasn’t.

If Illini beat Purdue and then win at Iowa, and make it to BTT final, that would be a lock for 3 seed at worst. It would mean the Illini would have likely won close to 5 straight Quad 1 games to the final. Some teams ahead of Illini right now will likely stumble a bit, and 26-8 is easily a 3 seed.

Still weird to think that two of the best high school players to come out of the state of Wisconsin in the last 25 years both donned an Illini uniform.

Somewhere in the wilds of backwoods Wisconsin, a badger
is pondering the unsolved conundrum, if only there were a tall, frosty, cool, delicious magic elixir that could help me forget, if only for a few hours, the unbearable pain of a fourth home court loss to the wonderful Illini, ironically led by a homegrown member of my own burrow.

Phonso may have jinxed us. He made an off hand remark mid game that we are a second week end team

Well, yes. It's the current top 5 offense paired with our previously competent defense. That has all the trappings of a team with a real shot at something special.
