I get the feeling this wont be the last NC for Williams.

Im guessing 3 total when he steps away from the job.

UNC has rearrived. They will be a monster of a program barring some unforseen roadblocks.

The matchup everyone has wanted all year is about to happen.

Illinois and UNC for all the marbles.

I've long maintaned that it was Illinois, then UNC, then everyone else. I still think that, and anticipate a great close game with Illinois pulling it out in a close one.

May is a beast but the key to this team is Felton and I think that our defense led by Deron Williams will be able to really disrupt him and the UNC offense. We have plenty of bodies to throw at May so that helps.

Anyways, it certainly feels like a heavyweight title fight. All year long hurtling towards each other. It should be a great one, I'll be there all decked in Orange.

Go Illinois!

Clark - man, your team deserved better. Seriously. That Illini team has heart and that goes a long ways in my book.

Like the sudden loss of all the talent that Williams didn't even recruit himself?

Congrats tar heel fans. Well deserved win... played a great game tonight.... and got few whistles against them [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] sean may gets one foul against him all night... no need for me to comment on that.

U of I is still the better team IMHO... AZ, UNC, DUKE.... all had more talent.... IL is a true team and a rarity in NCAA BB these days. they showed heart and win this game 6 out of 10 times. great season for the illini... they get a few bounces and a few more shots to fall and they win it.... unfortunately this was not their night... as a cub fan all i can say is ...."there's always next year"

cubs

ps... UNC has alway been my fav team after the illini (thanks to MJ). congrats to them again... and sean may is still fat.....

Hmmm, I suppose the UNC underclassmen look talentless???

And of course an already attractive program winning a NC in a compelling games is horrible for recruiting.

I dont think talent is gonna be a problem @ UNC in the long run.

I told you that you guys would whine about the officiating.
