So we win the Big Ten --- Again

The unbeaten season thing now has to become the only motivation for the Illini until the NCAA. There is nothing left to prove. We will be the #1 seed in the Big Ten tournament for sure, which means we know that the Friday game interferes with some work related things (thank you TIVO) and almost certainly they will be the #1 seed for the entire NCAA tournament, which means they get to play the winner of the #64-#65 game. After that cupcake, however, they'll have real games to play and will be challenged.

I do hope they go unbeaten because that will keep the edge on. It is hard to imagine, however, that they will look good in their gmes. The motivation is weak.
