[QUOTE="Cheez, post: 1264537, member: 544642"] If you look at it from the perspective of a single game, sure. But, for a team that is trying to build a tournament resume, this loss looms large. Illinois will likely lose to Purdue, meaning that they will be 2-4 in the conference heading into Michigan. That becomes a must-win. And, while the schedule looks easier after Purdue game, all the parity in the league this year ensures that you cannot overlook any team (except probably Rutgers, who we only play once). You have to take wins where you can get them, and not give up anything when you have a chance to win. [/QUOTE]
