Outlook: It was a back and forth fight between these two groups when they competed against each other in their only game during the regular season, which ended with a 77-68 victory by Illini. All-Big ten First Team Selection Kendall Bostic recorded a double double with 19 points and 10 rebounds. Average a double double and is one of the best strikers in women's college basketball. In three other players who have twice the number of numbers and there is a reason why this Illinois team was once classified.

The victory in Nebraska on February 16 was eight victories for Illinois, but a downturn followed to stop the dynamics. The Illini are 0-3 because this victory is understandable with losses against UCLA No. 3 and No. 4 USC-WAS, but a 78-69 defeat against Michigan, which had things angry with the post-season.

The Huskers shot less than 40% in their first meeting and only beat six three points. Similar to his game against Rutgers, when Nebraska can shoot with an improved rate and restrict the effects of Bostic and Bryant, a quarter -finals are on the cards. It is not great that the Illini will enter the post -season that runs a defeat with three games, and when Nebraska plays a dynamic of a game in Indy, I like the Huskers to avenge their defeat from earlier season.
