Come on Feel the Illinoise

A scene from a bar in the town of a previous opponent with the roommates:

Roommate: Who are those people?
Myself: Which people?
Roommate: The fans onscreen.
Myself: Just fans.
Roommate: You sure? They didn't look particularly enthused.
Myself: Those are pretty much Carolina fans for you.

And later:

Roommate: You guys really need a guy for clutch three pointers.
Myself: And for Reyshawn Terry to realize he's not that guy.

Mix in beer, coeds, and constant yelling at Dick Vitale to pay
attention to the game and you've got a pretty fun evening

The game was sloppy on both sides, which better lends itself to humor
than to analysis. Lack of experience finally caught up with them in the
last couple of minutes, but they were in a position to win in the last
minute, which after being down ten in the second half isn't bad.

Ginyard stuck out in my mind as the most impressive of the new crop, but
Hansbrough showed a toughness I'm not use to seeing among big men in
their first season. They seem able to keep up the style of tempo
Williams likes to play, and I'm a lot more comfortable with this team
than Iwas a few weeks ago. Hell, I can almost remember their names now.
