Question regarding OSU / Illini games

cpacmel

Newbie
Was anyone at the game last season when the Illini won by 1 point and won the Big Ten?

If you were, can you please explain how the Illini Celebrated. I though I say on the news last season that they were standing on the OSU scorer's table.

Any comments would be much appreciated.

Also was there talk of moving this year's game away from the Value City Arena because of last years game. Any links would be great

Thanks alot.

I may not be totally understanding what you are saying, but the Illini LOST to Ohio State last year in Columbus, it was one of their 2 losses on the season(obviously the other was against UNC in the championship game.)

I apologize if I'm mistaken on what you mean, but I dont think Illinois was celebrating after losing by 1 point to Ohio State.

I believe he means last year as in the 2003-2004 season where tOSU lost to Illinois by 1 point in the last game of the regular season. And then he is talking about the game that already was played this year as possibly being moved.

Unfortunately I was not at the game in 2004 and have no clue about the celebration nor did I hear anything about the game being moved this year. Sounds interesting though, so if anyone else has heard anything, post away.

Alright, that sounds more reasonable. I was thinking in terms of next season since the college bball season is now over, but I get it now.

I'd like to hear about this too if someone has any info on it, not sure why'd they be all celebrating like that because OSU wasnt all that great last year, but still interesting.

I apologize, I should have been clearer. The game was in the 2003-2004 season. I remember seeing Illini players standing on the scorer's table celebrating their win, and winning the Big Ten out right for the first time in many years. I wasn't sure if anyone was at the game and could provide more insight.

Was it just a rumor to move this years game? Or was it really discussed?

Thanks.

I heard there were dancing girls and a bagpipe line.

I was at that game. I don't remember anyone up on the tables, but I think we left pretty quickly. Wasn't really interested in watching the other team celebrate, I guess.

My most vivid memory was the no-call as Fuss-Cheatham got bumped on the final drive and shot. :(
