Hoping and praying Illinois get a #1 seed in the Big Dance and win it all.

[JGibson]

In my opinion, the Illini are the real Big Ten regular season champs (or at least co-champs with Michigan).

[JGibson]

NOTE: Teams can withdraw and be replaced by another team until Tuesday night, so the bracket could potentially be in flux.

[JGibson]

First 1-seed since I was in high school seventh grade. I-L-L!

I-N-I!  Feels great!

Hope and pray that we win it all. I-L-L! I-N-I!

[JGibson]

What the hell is going on with the Illini? They're getting blown out by Loyola.

[JGibson]

I am so distraught, along every Illini fan. That game broke my bracket.

[JGibson]

I was happy when the Zags won it on the long shot at the end of OT. I picked them to win it all.

[JGibson]

Stanford won the women's tournament 54-53 over Arizona. They withstood a late charge by Arizona to win it all.
