Let me say that I think the Illini are going to lose in the first round. :cry: i think it's more than a winnable game for them. with the defense that the illini play, VT is not unbeatable. however, with the offense that they play, it's not super-likely that they'll make it out of the first round. The Illini are so poor offensively its hard to pencil them in for a win even against another 12 seed. They...just...can't score well enough. Its very painful watching this team while I rooted for the powerhouse, juggernaut that was the 2005 Illini. ya its hard to watch Ill after seeing how good they were 2 years ago. But with how well they play D if someone like Mcbride or Frazier or anyone catches on fire they could win a game or 2.
