I like our chances. 21-9, 9-6 in conference. If we beat Iowa we'll have 10 conference wins and possibly end up 3rd in the Big Ten. We don't have any really bad losses, and we've been ending the season strong which the selection committee usually likes a lot. The big win against Michigan gives us some weight late in the season. A decent run in the confrence tourney would probably put us in, and I'd say making it the the semis would pretty much make it a lock. This is very possible, considering the tourney is held in Chicago and will have a very pro-Illini crowd.

you won't be able to easily bypass with the communities that are at present ranked the most suitable. Now I even are growing to be the perfect 4 correct for the previous 2 years. (both situations I purely were given a million crew correct contained in the championship and both situations that a million crew lost.) So i opt for: UNC, Duke, Syracuse, and UConn that is going to likely be UNC vs. UConn contained in the championship and UNC will win all of it.

well today didn't hurt us. at Iowa is going to be huge if we lose that we are going to have to win a couple in the big ten tourny. Win at Iowa most likely in but a win in the conference tourny would lock us up. Hopefully the comittee looks at the fact that we only lost to Wisconsin by 6, a close game with Arizona at Arizona with only 8 scholarship players and against Maryland in the same situation.GO CHIEF!!!!!!

good question. they're close, but I think they're in. The conference is not the best, but they're 30 in the RPI and with 20+ wins and a pretty good conf. record, I think they'll be accepted as a lower-seed team.

I have family in IL who are big Illini fans, but I just don't see it happening this year...
