The 2nd half of the double-header tonight has #22 Texas against # 16 Illinois. After somewhat of a late season struggle last year, The Longhorns look to prove to the nation that they are back. That is no small task tonight, as they are playing a strong Illinois team. This Illinois team has strong leadership from senior guard Demetri McCamey. He is one of the best 3-point shooters in the country. Illinois also has all 5 starters returning.
Then there is this young Texas team. They have a great player in Jordan Hamilton, he is great athlete and scorer. It is not very often that a sophomore is the leader of a team. This is the case in Texas. Guard Gary Johnson also helps carry the load for The Longhorns. Rick Barnes can coach this young team to an upset victory, but it will be tough. Illinois will win this game because the amount of experience they have.-Josh Neighbors
