Can Illinois beat Kansas?

03-20-11, 05:43 PM

This ML is rather low at -400 for supposedly the best team in the country...

Anyone else smell an upset here?

Illinois seemed to do alright OOC with decent teams, stunk it up in the Big 10.

Interested where this line closes.

No they can't. Kansas defense will cause turnovers leading to easy points. Also don't forget Bill Self used to coach Illinois so he knows their strengths and weaknesses.

Kansas won't get upset after the embarrassment of losing to UNI last year

Not sure If I can go all in this many times in one day but enjoying this osu game.

Going to wait for late action to decide.

Kansas always seems to choke in the 1st or 2nd round.

Im pretty sure their strengths and weaknesses have changed since he coached there, dont see how you can even consider that into being any type of factor... Kansas rolls though

At least they are not playing Bradley or Bucknell or Buttfuck College so they might actually win.

Kansas wins...and you are right. There are zero players left from the Self era at Illinois.

Huh? That was 7 years ago. He didn't coach or recruit any of the current players. So you'll have to explain that one to me. How about maybe Weber knows Self's stuff? After all, he did burn him in effigy and conduct his funeral.

Illinois runs the same motion offense like Kansas. Bill Self knows how to stop it.

Illinois will lose this game by 9+ points, I am betting the ML on Kansas and the spread, -8.5 on Kansas. Illinois played their one solid game of the tourney. The season ends for Illinois tonight! They struggled to find consistency all year long and that will continue tonight, the only chance they have to stay in this game is to shoot 50% from the field and 65% from 3. If they cannot shoot the ball well tonight they have absolutely no chance at all in this game. That being said, I would not be completely surprised if this game is tied at the half or very close, but by the end Kansas will prevail and win.

they are in a very very good spot....bro, I've been making very very large wagers this past week, particularly in the college tourney. Got extremely lucky on butler +8 2h yesterday for 3k....and got very very lucky on lakers ML versus twolves a couple nights ago. Other than that, have been on a huge hot streak....if kansas wins this one, I'll be up 3k today Just fyi, I had lost close to 15k last sunday/monday. If kansas wins, I've made up about 14.2k of it back!!!! about even, unbelievable week to say the least. got lucky quite a few times but scared money don't win money!!!! BOL bro
