Illinois in a lot of trouble

and in a locker room in Indy, Alan Griffin is smiling.

Raf and Nantz sound like they just lost about 10 g’s taking Illinois -6.5.

I'd be surprised if Nantz and Raf care themselves, but the network execs do: the upsets are good for ratings in early rounds, but the 1-seeds and blue bloods are good for ratings in the Final Four. So they generally don't like seeing a 1-seed go down this early.

At this point, I think they're bringing out Seth Davis for the studio show just for sh!ts and giggles. How much more can this guy keep embarrassing himself?

I mean Illinois was a fantastic team this year, no shame in picking them

I am very pleased with this result!

Less than 15 mid range jumpers made all season - I like Marek - he's smart and crafty

He hit more little floater types inside the paint than mid range. Weird because he could hit the 3 and mid range well a few years ago

Krutwig looks like a new and vastly improved Big Earnie

I honestly thought she passed away. She’s now 101. Turns 102 in August. Congrats to her

Meh, I was having second thoughts at halftime. Seth was doubling down.

I love this Loyola big man with his 70s Pron stache. Fundamentally sound. Doesn’t weigh 180 lbs.

AG will respond with a big game?

 

[texascpa]

Having the game of his life. I'm having flashbacks to that movie The Best of Times.

He was player of the year in his league, I'm not sure this was the game of his life.

She does cameos for $150. I think I am going to get one from her for my Illinois grad friend if we get lucky this afternoon.

Come on. It's one thing to do it against MVC competition. It's another to do it against Kofi Cockburn.

But Alsacs, you could get William Hung ($30), Carson Kressley ($69) and Chris Hansen ($50) all together and still be a dollar under budget. Please consider.

Moser is legit. Hire him once we have an opening?

Maybe they did?

My GF texted me this morning saying ESPN was talking up this game like it was easy money to take Illinois. No idea what she was watching - does ESPN have a gambling show?

Yup. But pay no attention. Those guys are not any more intelligent than you or I.

ESPN has a gambling show on 6 days a week. It’s called Daily Wager.

Sunday it’s on the mornings and M- at night.

They bring on a bunch of people. Including Bill Walton.

More like Cotease, amirite?

If we play them she could call JB “kid” and it would fit.
