I was hoping Hawkins would have a breakout game and he has given the Illini another weapon tonight . We will see how they play in second half . Shooting over 60% so if they can keep up their momentum we should be good .

Re: NCAA men's basketball 2023-24
Hi guys , I was expecting a tougher game last night . When game started and Hawkins came alive I thought this could be ugly . I think the Iowa State game will be a tougher test for the Illini . Truthfully I am just happy we have won two games Underwood is a good coach . I heard he got a $100,000 bonus winning conference tournament and trip to the dance . Thursday is going to be fun ! Dan

Re: NCAA men's basketball 2023-24
Big game tonight against Iowa State . One of the top defensive teams against one of the top offensive teams . Really worried about this match up . We will need to be firing on all cylinders and keep momentum at a fast pace . Fingers crossed and sprayed the cat Blue and Orange ! Dan

Re: NCAA men's basketball 2023-24
Wow, Clemson may have just punched our (Carolinas) ticket to the Final Four!
IF......if we beat Alabama!
Reason I say that, is because we pretty much OWN Clemson in basketball!
Yeah, pretty thrilled Clemson won!
