no fouls and running long offensive sets down 10 with 2 + minutes remaining hmmmmmm!!!!how many teams have been dead nut busting there ass the past few days to get off meaningless covering shots......very strange...i guess its just different coaching philosophy!!!i guess.

They played like they were down 20 instead of down 10. Gutless assholes.

I was wondering the same thing. They acted like it was just another game. I had Duke so I was laughing but what a bunch of spineless quitters.

It was an amazing final 5 minutes. I had the 2nd half under and marked it down for a loss. It was 69-59 with 5 minutes to play. I had to check the play by play chart to see for myself what happened. Illinois had a bucket and a free throw while Duke had one Redick 3-pter. There were NO points scored in the final 3:05! In a game that was fairly close at 69-62 with 3 plus to play, that few points is simply unbelievable! Never seen it before - that game should hit 150 easy.

Maybe this happened. The Coach for Illinois thought it was an Double elimination Tournament, and told his players will get em tomorrow.

I HEARD THIS REASON WHY ILLINOIS STOPPED PLAYING, ON ANOTHER SITE.

"BECAUSE JESUS HATES ME!"

Horseshoe, I'm with you on that. I'm thinking what a bad play that 2nd half under was - then we get lucky. But it all evens out - I made a great play on Hawaii -2 on Monday night and got royally screwed! I was owed one.

CC, I've made that comment to self before in youth, then the sh!t would just get worse.

Yet, if you take the appreciative approach of Job, the next thing you know, he's giving you the life of Daniel.

CC, GTech's finish for you, was certainly manna from above eh?

Agreed Nate, it sure was weird to watch, tired legs, too far down, one shot and quit last few..I feel for those with Illini side that was in money all the way.

Amen ASU, anyone of you Bow bettors Monday, was due one!

GL Guys!

this was not a miracle it was STRANGE coaching philosophy 10 out of 10 coaches would try to "extend" the game in a "no tommorrow" tourney game...regardless congrats on your win and much continued success as it seems there are a lot of "bad beats" out lately!!!!!!GLTA
