Arizona basketball fans mourn. Your vaulted team, favorites of many a sportscaster, were handed a crushing, season ending loss. No doubt you believed in Stoudamire and Frye, both brilliant players. With only a few minutes to go, you confidently assessed the game situation and declared your team victor.
At that time, I did too. But we were all wrong.
Miraculously, the Illini battled to the last basket. Deron Williams made threes; Luther Head stole inbound passes and finished strong. Yes, as the fat lady waltzed on stage, the Illini basketball team tripped, grappled, and drove her offstage with a flurry of shots. Much like the unconscious fat lady behind the curtains, Arizona was stunned.
Illini 90 - Arizona 89 in overtime.
Eat it.
