Props to Baylor for being a load of underachievers, yet finding a way to hold off South Dakota State, Colorado and Xavier on their way to getting pantsed in the Elite 8. It's crazy how Missouri may have fared better had they lost in the championship game and sent to the south as a 3.

Yeah, I can't believe the committee set you up with such an unfair matchup as the MEAC champ that should have been a 16.

If/when Illinois is good again I bet illiniguy will never bitch about anything relating to the team

Right just like I always bitched during the MJ bulls era, oh wait I enjoyed the ride. Cause bitching about every little thing when your team is great is ridiculous.

 

Apparently great is a relative term.

C'mon dude. These threads were a [expletive] of bitching during Illinois games even when they were good. Don't pretend like you were some reasonable, balanced fan w perspective then.

I think it's still different. Illinois doesn't have national titles, you have 3. Again it's like the Bulls I watch their playoff runs differently since they've won titles.

Yea, Illini basketball is just like the Jordan era bulls

Where did I say it was? In fact they said I didn't enjoy games even when Illinois was good. I said we didn't have those titles to fall back on. You get that? Didn't. Dumbass.

We won a title in 08. Guess I can stop caring now.

No, but you cant cry about how bad you are every year since. Which you have sans Collins senior year. Each year you've been a top 4 seed. Suck it up and be a blue blood fan.

 

Spoiler alert. Next year you're gonna look awful at the beginning of the year. You'll lose Robinson, Taylor, and probably Withey. But, you add talent. By the end of the year you're gonna be pretty good again. Are you gonna spend all next year talking about how bad you are? Or are you gonna actually enjoy the ride? And you can't compare that to Illinois fans, our ride has been driving the bus into a train.

Where are you getting that I said it was unfair? I said they may have fared better considering the path Baylor had to the Elite 8.

Nope, it's the turth. I can handle saying it. You're always gonna be good as long as Self is there. It does help that in the last 3 years though you've played one single digit seed in the tournament. Us last year. Must be nice.

love how Florida managed to shoot two different 4 point shots on their last possession according to Kevin Harlan.

 

Wow Florida really choked this away. It's been a tournament of chokers

LOL at the announcer saying "for the lead" when Florida is down three.

 

I didn't know there was such a thing as a four-point shot.

That would be a four-point play.
