Analysis: The Fighting Illini’s “first-weekend pod” is very difficult. Houston is the four-seed, while UAB and Chattanooga fit the mold of mid-major’s that can win a few games. If Illinois can emerge to face Arizona in the Sweet 16, they’ve shown they cang. Illinois lost by four at home in the regular season to the Wildcats, but led for a portion of the game.
