How many teams have lost their first conference tourney game and then won the title?

Going back to 1994.   Zero.

We have no mid range game or athleticism. Bigs are excellent with Kofi and lately Hawk coming on strong. So it falls to our guards, they make shots we win. If they miss shots we lose.

Let's hope we don't get any morning games in the tourney. We know all too well the outcome.

Other than the Marquette game, Illinois has won every one of these ugly close games.  Today they finally lost.

Will be a popular upset pick in the 5/12 game
probably.  Illinois guards are way too inconsistent.  Thats the biggest problem with this team.

Underachiever can go to KSU next week.

Wow this is ignorant! Quite the overreaction. Wouldn’t expect any different from him though.

Lol. Title. I'll be ecstatic with a sweet sixteen. This is a team with double digit losses not the 05 Illini.

I just want at least a S16 this year. That’s my bar. That’s all I ask and I’ll be ok this off-season. That’s just two more wins guys. Two.

Classic letdown game.  IU was playing for their lives and has been decent lately. Their D had us sped up throughout and they let them play physical which is why a lot of the short shots didn’t fall. Trent and Plummer couldn’t hit anything with plenty of open looks.

Nice game for Hawk though.

With everything this team has dealt with making a sweet 16 and having a good showing there would make me happy.

Fucking Curbelo man. Jesus. Marquette all over again at the end.

Let’s get healthy this week and come out hungry.

A Sweet Sixteen is all I’m asking for right now.

It is pretty telling that the most experienced player in program history throws the ball away in clutch time and that our electric PG thinks he's Clyde Drexler but can't draw a foul in a last play scenario. Worst end-game management since the Bruce bad days.

The "bad" scenario is that we crap out early in the NCAAs and our bro-love AD gives Underwood a huge raise anyway to fend off suitors anyway.

If it helps, it doesn't. #8 TAM beats #1 Auburn.

"Worse" scenario is that crap out early, Underachiever goes back to K State, and then Guenther, Jr. brings back *gulp* BAM.

Been telling you guys our half-court offense sucks for weeks. Embarrassing loss for the “league champs.” Tournament hopes and expectations severely downgraded.

"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

The only thing that could make that scenario "even worse" would be Illinois losing to Loyola, again, in the 5/12 matchup.

Nightmare scenario: We get matched up with Akron and Groce clowns Underwood. Mamador returns to get his payback for being tormented all those years by the Anti-Groce crowd.
