Fighting Illini

[omahilo]

Michigan State and Illinois are both very overrated...

Im an Ohio State fan and Im telling you to watch out for us this year... we might not win the big ten but we will be in the race till the very end. Iowa is another team that is underrated as well.

Ohio State will be even scarier next year as we will get Greg Oden coming in... he is the best high school basketball player in the country right now.

WOO GO FIGHTING ILLINI!!! lol besides the fact that theyve won one game this season (ithink?) so far i think we're pretty damn good....next stop, OWN THE TROJANS

[olysports]

Actually, after the win today against Rutgers, they are now 5-0. So they have won 5 games, not 1. Next step for Illinois is the NCAA title rematch against UNC. That should be a good one, even though UNC has lost most of there starters from last year to the NBA.

whoops lmao i thought we were talking about footbal here. shows how good i can read. i actually won 1000$ in pools last year by having NC winning over illinois (even though they are my home team) but if illini are good enough this year, i might have them #1 on my bracket

you all are all wrong, Wisconsin is going to dominate . Very underrated IMO, and i too think OSU is very underrated

Hail Purdue?

Its gonna be Wisconsin vs UWM . Nah i think Duke will have a good shot. Illi i dont think will make it past the sweet 16.

We'll see how far they have fallen tonight! ACC/Big 10 Challenge vs UNC....If they can't beat a UNC team that lost theor top 7 scorers then they have no chance. Hansborough, Ginyard, Green, and Frasor are talented freshman but UNC is a year away from returing to a top 10 team.

I too did put UNC beating Illinois in the championship last year even though I didn't want them to win.

By the way, I thought that Wichita State would give it away, but I guess not. Anyways, if Illlinois can keep up what they have started this season, they may actually go far in the post season.
