Opponents will be ill' after facing the Illini

Games and seeds were announced yesterday for the NCCA tournament, this is the biggest spectacle in all of sports annualy, and this year will provide it's fair share of upsets, suprises, and at the end only 1 survivor.

Since I will be participating in multiple brackets, I will going on the record and saying that Illinois is my favorite to win the whole thing, the 3 headed monster consisting of Deron Williams, Dee Brown and Luther Head is tremendous, Brown has the versatility to not score a point in a game, and make up for it in other aspects. Williams and Head are his wingmen, supreme shooters that go to the basket with goals, as they are led by there General Brown who gets the ball up the court faster than any person in the tournament. With help from Augustine and Powell, these big men always provide enough slack to soften the big 3's load.

It also helps when you have an emotional goal attached, winning the Natl' title ultimately is the primary goal, but the deeper emotions and goals come from the death Bruce Weber's mother, who passed away just days before the Big Ten Championship. Trust me when something like that happens to a team that hasn't tasted a National Championship in the school's history and hasn't been to a Final Four since 1989, they are hungry enough to do what it takes to surpass the Heels', Deamon Deacons, and Blue Devils (can go far due to J.J Redick alone)
