IlliniTime

Tennessee and Texas Tech both beat Houston this season. Illinois beat both the Vols and the Red Raiders. This is a very good Houston team. But it's also one that the Illini can beat if they play well.

Michigan: Sweet 16 bound Illinois: Sweet 16 bound Purdue: Sweet 16 bound Nebraska: Sweet 16 bound Michigan State: Sweet 16 bound We’ll see what UCLA and Iowa have in store, but the top of the Big Ten was really, really good.

I think the High Point band has identified the proper amount of cowbell.

Torvik ratings since Feb 1. Illinois 2nd ranked offense, 23rd ranked defense. Houston 2nd ranked defense, 23rd ranked offense.

This gotta be the second best sequence of March Madness so far

VCU-Illinois just had the most violent missed dunk immediately followed by a made dunk sequence I think I've ever seen.

this sequence from Zvonimir Ivisic 😳

LIVE NOW!

ILLINOIS VICTORY! We’re heading to the NCAA Second Round for back-to-back seasons 🔶🔷

The only one. No comparisons.

To the VCU fans that are inevitably going to complain about free throw disparity, I say this respectfully as a Big Ten account. Illinois is known for not fouling. They’re one of the best teams I’ve ever seen at going straight up.

Victory super soakers have made a comeback 💦

ZVONIMIR IVISIC THROWING DOWN THE HAMMER ON THIS POSTER 🔨 DUNK OF THE TOURNAMENT CONTENDER 🤯

Big Z is a teacher. Just wanted to show Djokovic how it's done.

ILLINOIS AND VCU ARE TRYING TO DUNK EACH OTHER INTO OBLIVION

Things are feeling SWEET. For the second time in three years, we are headed to the Sweet 16!

Playing two games all day and then cramming six in from 5:15 to 9:45pm (???) remains one of the dumbest things we do every single year Just start a game once per hour!

🔶 12 PTS 🔶 11 REB 🔶 10 AST #OTD in 2024, @IlliniMBB's Marcus Domask posted the 🔟th triple-double in #MarchMadness history 🤩

Former Illini’s: Ayo Dosunmu with the assist to Terrence Shannon Jr🥲

Here are yesterday’s top performances, led by Illinois’ David Mirkovic. Chris Cenac Jr’s 18 rebounds were the second most ever by a freshman in a NCAA Tournament game.
