The Illinois-Minnesota game has just started. It is televised on CBS (WMBD in Peoria), in case anyone didn't know.

IL is still playing?

[Beninator]

Just a demented thought... I wonder what people would think if Illinois wins the Big 10 tournament and knocks ISU to the NIT?

[Rusty 54]

Illinois wins 54-50

I'm okay with that.

[SFP]

I'm okay with that.

So am I. I like BW and I'm happy for him.I hope they beat Wis. tomorrow!

Me too...I can't stand BO..

what a weird finish today though. Brock should have been called for a travel. I do agree on the clock though..they took forever to start it at 15.3

Beni - you mighta missed it. I made some predictions last night.

Here they are again:

1) Illini win B10 Tourney
2) Knocks ISU out of At-Large bid
3) Illini gets a 12 seed in dance
4) Drake gets a 5
5) Illini beat Drake in the first round of the NCAA

Do you mean after he got hit in the face?

It's all good Bert.

I am laughing my arse off...

Illini dancing in the NCAA is great. You guys deserve it. You deserve it so much. You guys have suffered so much over the past couple years. It is so sweet... sweet justice for the Illini.

Hahaha.

No doubt about that but if you don't call the foul you have to call the travel

If anything that Farber or whatever his name is should have been called for a foul on Brock. He nailed him right in the face.

Tomorrow will be a tall order, but it's not unattainable. Go Illini!

IlliBrave...

My eyes are already bleeding from the terrible offensive game expected between Wisky and the Illini.

I say the first one to 46 wins.

Prediction:

Illini 46
Wisky 42

You are right Mob, I missed your predictions from last night. --didnt mean to steal your thunder. -- I am not sure about number 5 though. I cringe just about every time the Illini shoot freethrows and that could be the difference against a team like Drake.

fwiw, I would love to see the Illini bounce ISU to the NIT.
