I hope to God that Mychael Henry is all pro. Or else the next four years are gonna be just as fun.

NIT NIT NIT NIT!

[Careless]

fitting end

[NeifiIsMyHomeBoy]

Well looks like the NIT again. [expletive] this team.

[illiniguy]

How many times have we seen that exact same game? Wake up Guenther.

[Careless]

Can we get a "gutless choking dog" ?

Yup, too bad Weber is getting until 2012.

[UMFan83]

Wow...sorry Illini fans. I learned what my friends hvae been bitching about all year first hand. I root for Illinois over every team but Michigan.

 

Michigan 2 NCAA Tournament appearances in 3 years after none in 12 years. I'll take that!

[SouthSideRyan]

Can somebody explain how Michigan's resume is better than ours right now.

[Flames24Rulz]

Illinois will still make the tournament, but they don't deserve to. Not with this head coach and this senior class.

[Flames24Rulz]

Way too many. It nearly happened in last year Big Ten quarterfinal against Wisconsin too.

 

I'm sure the first round game next Thursday or Friday will follow a similar script.

That's a really dumb way to look at things

They beat you

[UMFan83]

Illinois is still gonna make the tourney, but do you even want them to? My best friend is just about the biggest illini fan ive ever met and even he's apathetic at this point.

We may be playing Tuesday or Wednesday now

Yes because I'm not a clown.

[Irrelevant Dude]

I don't care what our RPI says, this team has no business in the NCAA tournament. It is the same pattern over and over again and they just find ways to lose games.

They beat you

 

And we beat them.

[illiniguy]

Even if we get in, who doesn't see this same damn game happening again? The Bruce Weber era.

I'm sure I'm talking about of my ass, but:

 

better overall record, 9-3 in last 12 games, and head to head win on neutral floor

 

vs.

 

win against UNC, h2h win, better RPI and SOS

 

is that the argument?

You shouldn't care what our RPI says because RPI is flaming dog poop. You should care that we have a better resume than most other bubble teams. Including Michigan

[Guest]

Illinois also beat Wisconsin and last 10/12/whatever games isn't considered by the committee.

Last 12 is meaningless.

 

Almost as meaningless as overall record.

I don't think I can put into words how much I hate how the offense just stops with about 7 minutes left and a lead.

i'm about ready to extend Beilein to a lifetime contract
