I want to know from everyone how far do you think the Fighting Illini Basketball Team of Illinois will go before someone wins against them.

As of this posting they're 25-0, 25 wins 0 losses.

The last team to go all the way was Indiana back in the 70's with a perfect 34-0 record.

So, let's hear it.

I think that they will go undeated through the regular season but will lose in the Tourney. I don't think they'll make it to the Championship either.

Their streak stops when they face Duke or UNC, and no sooner.

I'm from IL, so I'm loving every second they play out there.

UNC for sure, but I'm not sure about Duke

The silky smooth play of Darron Williams and Dee Brown probably left you with wet undergarmets no?

Latest update....

Illinois is now 26-0

26 wins and 0 losses

This breaks a school record that dates back to 1914, when they went 25 and 0. So even if they get beat they have a school record.
