    Illini basketball - final four bound
    If there are no injuries with this team or Covid related issues. This team will be in the final four and they have a good chance to win it all. Frodo’s going to be a fun team. Comparable to 1989 and 2005 Illini teams.

          they have a few interesting players but can be wildly inconsistent. sometimes i think they have a great coach and sometimes i think he's a buffoon. tough team to cap on or against

            Brock you are in way over your head when it comes to Illini athletics. This Illini team will be a great team. They will win the big ten. I think deep down your a Flames or Saluki’s fan.

                  Good luck pal! I’ll be watching. Hoping for a solid Michigan basketball season. Illini always tough.

                        The Hawks are going to be good but I don't think they're big ten title good. This might be skewed with being a life long Hawk fan, so YMMV.

                        I could see the hawks coming in 2nd or 3rd in the B1G. I'm not sure if Illinois fills that #1 spot or not. I could very much so see Ohio State winning the B1G

                          Also, the B1G is loaded this year. A lot of good teams

                                Considering the Big 10 is better than the ACC this year, I'd say better.

                                They do visit Duke in a couple of weeks, right after Baylor, so we'll find out a lot soon.

                                  LOL both Wisc + Iowa better

                                  Mich St always top tier

                                  Big 10 too hard of conference, Illinois will get difficult seeding for tourney and have to grind too hard to reach sweet 16 let alone final 4

                                        Seeding is key in tourney. The committee loves their usual suspects. Illinois looks great.

                                            Illinois is the 5th or 6th best team in the big 10

                                            Indiana is right there with them

                                            Iowa, wisconsin, ohio St, michigan St

                                            All above

                                                what do you think about Purdue and where do you rank them?

                                                  7th or 8th

                                                  Nothing exceptional about them, especially without the mackey crowds this year

                                                    Big Ten pretty stacked this year. Interesting to see how it will all shake out after they beat each other up in conference play.

                                                          Illinois is the same team every year under Underwood, good defensively but trash in the half court offensively relying on isolation offense late in the shit clock, cockburn is overrated too, he can’t shoot at all.

                                                            At the time of my post, the game was tied and competitive. Yes, the orange team got smacked around. Kind of like what Ty does to your face on a weekly basis
