I'm a lifelong Illinois fan from Chicago, and I lived in both Spokane and Ann Arbor for a few months. Let me just say, this was easily the best Illinois win since Arizona in the Final Four, and I'm super hype for the chance to play Gonzaga in the Championship.

Put some respect on Illinois, they’ve been grinding it out and putting their program on the map again. This could go down as one of the best teams school history along side the ‘89 Flying Illini and the ‘05 Illini.

It's a travesty that Michigan didn't reschedule 3 games and got killed by Illinois at home and was "awarded" the regular season title based on "%". What a joke. They should at least put an asterisk next to them.
He’s great but he should stay another year. I wouldn’t take him in the lottery off of his performance this year. He’d be a lottery pick if he comes back
If he’s declared for the draft he would go undrafted lmao. You have clearly not watched him all year. He isn’t good enough. He made some good plays in this game but bad ones to equal that.
Took ‘em to the wood shed and beat ‘em like a red headed step child! Having said that, Illinois is not 30 points better than Michigan. Iowa ain’t 30 points better than Ohio State and KU ain’t 15 better than Baylor. Still, upsets happen!

Shoutout to Trent Frazier man. Was a late ESPN 100 recruit from the old regime. I’m glad he is still here and flourishing

Sooo weird seeing Illinois ranked this high, since when? Deron Williams and Dee Brown duo days Right.
Not really Illinois was very good in the late 80's the 90's and early 2000's.
Yea Dwill was nasty
Made the tournament back when Brandon Paul,and Richardson was playing. Got cheated with that out of bounds call at the end against Miami
Illinois was ranked in the top 25 last year but because of covid nobody really remembers
Yes since 2005 we lost to north Carolina in the championship game

That Illinois team massively underachieved. Such a great season by Illinois. Absolutely rekt Michigan.
And they didn't even have their best player that night. They absolutely underachieved in the tourney, but they were probably the best team in the nation
LOL what were Michigan fans saying about Gonzaga not deserving #1? Pretty sure we'd never lose to a team by this many points.
Idk if we said Gonzaga didn't deserve #1, we just made our case that we DID deserve #1, but after last night, nope
To be fair, they’ve only played four good teams the entire year

He will not get drafted this year. He’s not even a second rounder after this year lol. He will be back and will grow into a great player.
This is my thoughts on Ayo Dosunmu, not Adam Miller lol

It's guaranteed that if Illinois gets to play Michigan State in the Big Ten Tournament this year, the Spartans will receive the same whooping.
Wow! Go Illini!
The Slewfoote big men from the beeline error will be the reason Juwan Howard won’t get it done this year
