And the Wildcats choke it away. So long tourney hopes.
What a sad spectacle. 9 minutes between FG's late in the game. Shurna gets alligator arms. They choked.
Good grief.

Had NU won, they wouldve been in. The Texas win against ISU wouldve hurt their chances somewhat but losing to Minn killed their shot.

"Bruce is everything you'd want as a coach," athletic director Mike Thomas said at a news conference that Weber did not attend. "We had great success here but in the last four or five years, I don't know if you want to say (that) we're running in place, or maybe even digressed."
Thomas, who in his first year on the job also has fired football coach Ron Zook and women's basketball coach Jolette Law, said fans expect the Illini to be "a factor" in the Big Ten and the "national conscience" each season.
Quite a wordsmith Illinois has there.

Nothing wrong with a little digression.
He's not afraid to clean house, all signs are pointing towards Shaka Smart.

I guarantee he doesn't go an hour without using "myself" as the object of a sentence.

"It would be a digression to reveal my guilty conscience but the regression our teams have had led me to a conscious decision."

SLU blowing the game to Xavier looks rigged by the A10 to get a 3rd team into the NCAA.
