We are now under five weeks from Selection Sunday, but where does the Illinois basketball team currently stand in the latest bracketology?
Since my last bracketology update, the Illini have won three games and improved their winning streak to four in a row. The Orange and Blue were able to knock off then-No. 7 Iowa 80-75 at the State Farm Center, hold off Indiana in overtime at Assembly Hall, and handily defeat then-No.
