I just saw the box score. Couldn't believe they lost at the Kohl Center. Anyone able to comment on the game? I missed it.

Wasn't paying attention until the end, but UW was launching 3s and missing most of them.  Was really surprised they didn't work the offense more since they didn't need 3s right away.

While amusing and pleasing, Illini is one of the teams we are battling with to get in.  Aw, the heck with it.      ;D :D ;D :) ;D ::) ;D

Yeah. It's always good to see Wisconsin lose but I guess this doesn't really help us.  Also, I was not expecting the Illini to competing for a Big Ten Championship this year.  Should be an interesting battle for the number one spot in that conference.

Even with the last two wins over MSU (sans Lucas) and UW (sans Leuer, though they had been playing great without him), I'm not convinced Illinois is really at the level of the other top big 10 teams.  Six of their wins have come against the worst of the conference (Iowa, Indiana, PSU) and they split with Northwestern.  They've got a tough schedule to finish.
