ILL and Michigan could both be Final Four bound. I believe they don't have any any elite teams this year so about 15-20 teams could win it all thou, this is a wild wild year for MARCH MADNESS.
Lmao, remember after the Michigan game people said Illinois was better without Ayo. Illinois beat Nebraska and Wisconsin once with and without Ayo. Michigan was the only game they played that Ayo didn’t play before. And Howard (coach) said himself that he planned for Ayo and not Illinois which shows how good he is. Then he comes back with 19 points and a dub? Another clutch play at the end? Best player in college basketball, no one is changing my mind.
The offense flows better without Ayo. There’s not really a question about that. Today it worked better with him, there were still a couple “stand and watch Ayo moments” though.
@@Growinggolfing dawg Ayo literally leads the Big Ten in assists per game and is the only player on the team who can consistently knock down big shots and create when the shot clock is winding down. The transition offense with him is a different monster too. Just stfu
@@Growinggolfing : Stats? You mean the dude who leads his team in assists and points. Who’s second in rebound and steals too on his team? Leads the Big 10 in assists. Lmao. Without Ayo Dosunmo they beat Nebraska and Wisconsin. Guess what? They beat Nebraska and Wisconsin WITH AYO too🤣 the only game was Michigan and their coach (Juwan Howard) said they planned for Ayo and not Illinois which shows how good he is. Made it easier for Illinois to win that game. Yet comes back with 19 points and beats Ohio State with a clutch lay up? Lmao you don’t know college hoops or basketball in general. Stick to baseball or sum.
@@uriahhunter4919 I do think it's better than 2005 team only because the current Illini team has true center. Only reason 2005 team lost to N. Carolina was Illinois didn't have true center. The current team is complete and well balanced in my opinion.
It turned out it was a blessing that Alan Griffin transferred to Syracuse. That gave more playing time for Curberlo and Miller. I specially like Andre Curbelo game. His move is silky smooth and has very high basketball IQ. Dosunmo was dosunmo. He should be drafted in the first round. If the Bulls draft em then I might become a Bulls fan again, lol. Congrats to the team. Let's win the championship! Go Illini!!!
Griffin went to the 8th place team in the ACC. He would have played for Illinois. His choice though. He probably is getting more playing time, but who cares.
Zorro was there... hahaha AYO glad to see you on the floor he's a ptp baby! Ive said it all year and ill keep saying it when Curbelo matures he's gonna be deadly he's changed alot since the beginning of the season he's understanding fundamentals so much better he's gonna be so exciting. Dicky V got so excited he said flying ILLINI you know his feelings lol
I-L-L! I-N-I! Peaking at the right time, hoping for this win streak to continue into the tournament, and into national championship game. They've got talent to win it all! Ayo is definitely an All-American!!!!
I wished the buckeyes ended off the season on a good note, i feel as if they got too cocky after 7 straight wins🤷♂️ also a big reason they’re losing recently is because of washington making bad drives to the basket and missing too many shots. Illinois played a great game tho
2:51 You can see how Curbelo hitting that three earlier opens his game up. Now OSU has to take that shot seriously, giving Curbelo the opportunity to drive it right past the closing defender straight to the hoop. If he can't hit that shot, guys can sit back and play the drive.
LET ME MAKE THIS CLEAR, IF MICHIGAN STATE UPSETS MICHIGAN AND ILLINOIS FINISHES THE BIG TEN WITH 16-4 RECORD AND MICHIGAN IS ONE HALF GAME BEHIND AT 14-3, THEN ILLINOIS WINS THE BIG TEN CHAMPIONSHIP AND WILL BE SEEDED #1 IN THE BIG TEN TOURNEY. NO IFS ANDS OR BUTS.
4:04 And then at this point, after hitting the three, then driving at 2:51instead of shooting it, OSU has to take his driving skills seriously. So they all collapse in on him. He sees it and knows Williams is wide open. Curbelo is a game changer if he can hit a three pointer or two and keep his dribble tight. Just a nightmare to defend. Pick your poison.
People are sleep on Gandison... He played a big role... He's gonna be a sleeper reason the illini do big things... His role is growing and he's up to the task. He's a x factor and If Adam Miller can get going, nobody is gonna be able to stop these kids...
@None Of your Business : Um. Buddy. Please delete this comment with all do respect. That might be the most idiotic comment I heard in my life. How is Andre Curberlo In any way shape or form better or “could” be then the best player in the country? Seriously? Rethink that and realize how stupid that sounds. He isn’t a top 50 player either. Don’t ever compare him to the best player in the country and the best closer in the country. He’s balled out the last couple of games. You clearly haven’t watched the whole season. Nonsense
@@connorbradby765 I don’t think there is anything wrong with saying Curbelo could be better in 2-3 years than Ayo is now. Curbelo is a beast and getting better every game. Chill out
This pandemic will effect future contracts...the days of big boy contracts are over. Half the crowds, eventually we will be not as interested...then the NBA will be just a virtual video game.

The Illini are peaking at the right time

Illinois just built different
No osu built different but they have a prob showing up at times they should facts
Game was a lot closer than it should have been, osu hit a lot of really tough shots

@@Growinggolfing : It flows better? Where have you been all college season? Lmao, that’s a ridiculous take
@@connorbradby765 no, this is not a take. Look at the numbers dude. You don’t know what you’re talking about

That just sealed the number one seed for Illinois
Facts
Yup
The only way they don't get a one at this point is to lose thier first Big 10 tourney game.
@@timscott5170 Do you think this year’s team is just as talented as the Deron Williams group that went to the national championship??

Andre Carbelo is different!!! VanFleet type
I-L-L!
I-N-I!
Illinois should send flowers to the Duane Washington for that hero ball
You gotta love Big 10 basketball!
As an Illini fan I feel like people were thinking of the Michigan game as the ankle breaker, and the OSU game as the shot to count the ankle breaker.
Just give the Illini a #1 seed already.
Am saying gonzaga play doesn’t really play comp
Illini will win a big ten championship when they hand they keys over to Curbelo!!
5:53 The classic "shake your hand at a wide open shooter from 8 feet away" defense. I like it.
Zorro was there... hahaha AYO glad to see you on the floor he's a ptp baby!

Curbelo will definitely be a star. He is a playmaker. With almost reckless playstyle I am just worried he might get hurt though.
I-L-L! I-N-I! Peaking at the right time, hoping for this win streak to continue into the tournament, and into national championship game. They've got talent to win it all! Ayo is definitely an All-American!!!!
O-H. N-O.
😂😂😂
Illi hoopin
“My guys tell me adesanya the guy” haha
illini winning without Ayo before him returning to this game was huge both short and long term.
I wished the buckeyes ended off the season on a good note, i feel as if they got too cocky after 7 straight wins🤷♂️ also a big reason they’re losing recently is because of washington making bad drives to the basket and missing too many shots. Illinois played a great game tho
Game would’ve gotten really ugly, but he made a lot of contested shots.
2:18 Is there anything in sports more satisfying than a great bounce pass?
Gracias a nuestro boricua...

Nope. The Illini have clinched the two seed already. Winning percentage is worse than Michigan.
@@cjoliver7871 HISSSSSSSSSSSS!!!
Well Done!
I kinda clicked on the video because of the thumbnail 😅😅💯 “Ho-Ho” Honda 🤣🤣🤣.
Starting to get 2005 vibes

5:21 3 minutes & 53 seconds left. 5:31 4 minutes & 18 seconds left. Good job, ESPN. Remember when you were serious?

Gotta love seeing the Buckeyes lose 4 in a row in basketball and lose the National Championship in football! F the bucks!!!😂😂
Gonzaga is the best team
Did anybody here that 2:57
That was pretty close tho
moneys worth
5:44 WTH kind of defense is OSU playing here? Man-zone?
I live 30-35 minutes from there
How is 5:05 and 6:05 a foul? What has this game come to 🤦🏻♂️
Curbelo should be starting. Too many slow starts.
Stop. He needs to come off the bench to provide sparks and bring offense. Don’t say that nonsense

Curbelo will be top 5 PG in Nation if he sticks around for 2 more years... he'll go first round draft pick if he does stick around
Ohio State over rated
No, not at all. They are great.
