Big game up in Minny tomorrow night. If the Illini win they'll be in position to end the evening either a game back or tied with Michigan St. for first place in the Big Ten (the Spartans play at Iowa tomorrow). If the Illini lose they could fall two games behind the Spartans and into a tie with Penn St. for fourth-fifth in the conference (Purdue would be second and Minny would be third in that scenario).This is no time to be falling back in the standings.
Lunardi's current Bracketology has the Illini as a #4 seed playing #13 Western Kentucky in the first round, the winner playing either #5 Georgetown or #12 BYU. That's a tough draw but one I see the Illini handling with characteristic panache.
