I think most people have been surprised. I'm not sure many folks thought Illinois would still be a strong as they have been.
yeah.
I figured they would be. A Lot of what Illinois did last year was based on Dee Brown moving without the ball. It still is. If you want to beat Illinois, you have to contain Brown and not give me a chance to get his other teammates open looks.
the surprising team, at least really early, was how strong Indiana looked coming out of the gates. But they've faded. They don't have a deep bench and their big guys are getting tired.
