[QUOTE="LarryGotFouled, post: 1522464, member: 229656"] This is a very different Illini team from the last 10-12 years. For the first time in a long time, the team seems to be much better than the 'sum of its parts'. We're not that deep and have a few guys with some glaring holes in their game, but they play with much more consistency than would be expected. It seems in each of the last several games, we've had some guys with bad games, some bad shooting, some adverse calls, etc. but they just shrug it off and keep going hard. That is really impressive and a testament to Underwood and the staff. For the tournament purposes, I think it means we're not going to blow anyone out, so the first round is going to be nerve-wracking. However, if we actually bring our 'A game' similar to 2nd half at Purdue, I think the sky is the limit. It's fun to root for these guys. [/QUOTE]
