SO, does anyone around here follow NCAA Basketball? I am lovin' this 21-0 winning streak (but of course, I'm biased, as it is my school)! What do you guys think of the Fighting Illini?

Illini are good, but GO DUKE!

Wow, we got some "posers" in here. Anyone watch the game tonight? Once again, Dee, Deron, and Luther led the team. I look for them to go undefeated in the regular season now after their two tough road tests. Their only remaining "difficult" game is at Iowa in a couple weeks. Great season so far, and i hope they can continue to dominate.

Well, it's now 24-0, but tonight's game was just too close for comfort.

Say again?
Illinois:
Big Ten Champions! Number One NCAA Tourney Seed! And favored by many to win the Championship game (probably against Duke)!
NIU:
Ummm.... attempted the first game in the MAC tourney?
I rest my case!

NIU is a football powerhouse.
We also know how to party hard.

Lol.... I think Illinois knows how to party pretty well, too... well, at least everyone I know does.
But yeah, our football team (at least for now) does royally suck. Maybe Ron Zook (new head coach) will turn things around.

And I thought Western was a party school. (My sister went there and there were cops handing out bear to minors on the street. Talk about a good school.

Yay! I was really glad that it wasn't as close of a game as last weeks! I almost had a heart attack last week.

Just because your college team sucks at Basketball dont, piss on those who have a team that can actually win some games.
