Illini -9 for the day? No team really close. You pretty much demolished the field, and I couldn't be more pleased - and kind of surprised. But sports are full of adventure and suspense. Illini: you made my day. Congratulations all! On to Californey.

I meant Carlsbad, Californey. Please excuse mistake; I was elated big time.

Go ILL-

Take me to your leader - for a lesson. Why do I shank putts?

Kidding. Mike Small is the bestest.

Congrats to Herendeen, to coach Small and to the entire team...

I hope Mike Small plays some golf himself later. Am-Fam with Stricker host in Wisconsin. Sure. Plenty of Illinois PGA stuff or Champions Tour things.

Coach Small is a caring nurturer - a Stuart Smalley pero con mas grande huevos.

I was on my way back from El Paso, Illinois. Hence the Espanol. Perdonome.

Five of the top 10 teams (ASU, Ole Miss, Arkansas, Washington, Alabama) failed to advance to the championships. Assuming the Illini climb in the polls with the win, they should be in the top 10 for seeding next weekend.

For the rest of the B10, Purdue and Ohio State also advanced to the championships. None of next year's newcomers qualified. Also Minnesota's Ben Warian, who finished T2 behind Max, will compete as an individual next weekend.

I could be wrong but I believe the seeding for the match play is based on the results of the 72 holes of stroke. I don't think rankings come into play in the Championship portion.
