The Fighting Illini have put together quite a season thus far as they captured the teamâs first Big Ten tourney Championship since the 2005 season on Sunday but now the sights are set on something bigger a National Title. The journey will not be easy and here we take a look at how it may unfold.
The Illini are the top seed in the tourneyâs Midwest region and should easily dispatch of first round opponent Drexel. The Dragons are just 12-7 and wonât be able to match up with the Illiniâs physicality or athleticism. Round 2 however will not be as easy.
