| 0:14.8 | It is Jeremy Warner, Kyle Tossk with you at State Farm Center, where we just witnessed Illinois when its seventh straight game |
| 0:21.8 | and this Maryland team not the same Maryland team that terrified Illinois for all those years. |
| 0:28.3 | Illinois without Kyle and Boswell takes care of the Terps 89 to 70 in this one. |
