3-17 from 3 and they’re still up 30. Wow. This UConn team is a buzzsaw at a level we have never seen before

Illini came out of halftime realizing this ain't it.

That wasn't even unlucky. UConn just defended out of their minds and made good transitions off it.

Teams just fighting not to lose by 30 vs uconn lol

Also for those Bill Murray fans at 0:48, his son is an assistant coach at UCONN.

And alot of people siad this was the hardest competition for UCONN in this tournament.. hmm... That was insane.. i left the room for 4 mins came back to a 17 point lead

This has got to be a record

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE HATERS 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The last time UConn went on a 30-0 run was in 1990 against university of New Hampshire. This team does it in the elite 8 against one of the most physical teams left. Incredible.

This is ball when you're at the park and have a dominant 5 and not getting off the floor! Other team doesn't have a shot when you're fast breaks start going! lol

You just got UCONNED!!!

I am f4om Illinois and I have zero ties to UCONN but that was the most powerful, non-argumentive display of dominance I've seen in a long while

As a big ten fan, just give the title to uconn. Purdue is the only challenge left and even then its not gonna be close. Uconn by 15 in the championship game

Before tonight the best run I have ever seen deep in the NCAA tournament was when Kentucky with Jamal Mashburn started the game on a 34-6 run against Wake Forest in the 1993 Sweet 16. The announcer at that game, Dick Stockton, commented "this is a withering display of basketball talent on both ends of the floor." That's exactly how I would describe this exhibition by UConn. This was beyond impressive.

This UConn team just may be the best ever

UConn fan here, we still could see a game we’re like 4,5 UConn players are red hot shooting in the same game

Illinois was scared of them. Plain and simple.

No ones beating them

30-0 Run is crazy 😅

Can this UConn team beat the Pistons??

I can't honestly remember seeing anything like that in an elite 8 game. It took me by surprise because everyone kept telling me now UCONN is going to have to battle in some close games with teams that are talented enough to beat them. I'm still waiting....LOL

UConn shot poorly from 3 (18%). Their All-American PG Newton had 0 FGs. Castle had 1 FG and only 2pts. And they still routed Illinois. That's the scariest thing. Just imagine if UConn has a game where they shoot average, or even well from 3. What if they actually play their A game?

There’s more in Storrs.

I barely watch March Madness but when I saw a notification for a team going on a 30-0 run to win, I had to see it. Is this a record?

“We’re down by 5 we’re okay” no you ain’t 😅

Uconn is scary

It was a great season for Illinois but they ran into a buzzsaw tonight, I knew it would probably take a perfect game to beat Uconn and that sure didn't happen 😂.

Amazing had to work but was checking my phone great to see it finally!

Their coach is really talented

This UCONN team is generational. Dominant on both ends of the court and a coach who will bench you if you don’t maintain a 25 point lead lol

HOLY CRAP!

Proud alumni.....give it up for the top dawgs in the nation...the beast of the Big East! UC@NN!!!! Represent!!!! Husky 4 life!

I knew UConn would win but holy sh…

Loved seeing Uconn play when they came to town to play DePaul

Insane

And their first team all American only had 5 points. Lol

That's pretty incredible

Just Amazing. 6 all-time championships and counting.

It’ll take a Villanova ‘85 game to beat UCONN…..dayum near perfect. Alabama has good guard play and would need Nelson to show up like he did against UNC.

Update that bracket already! 🤣

Huskies 🐺

Looks like UCON drank Michael Jordan's secret sauce during halftime.

That screen shot! Edey mom snuck into the game and even she couldn't believe how good UConn is!

Granted, it only takes losing by one point to knocked out of the tournament but that's the closest I've seen a sports moment approach the overwhelming impact of Secretariat. I was like, "OMG!"

Damn....😳

30-0 run is crazy lmao

Reminds me of the Magic-Worthy-Scott Lakers!

Illinois controller disconnected

Reminds me of the 58 point half Houston put on a good Louisville team during 83's Final Four.

Dog mentality 🔥🐶🤘

Oh baby. The Husky machine ran over them.

I have a feeling that the UCONN men will create the same effect that the Lady Huskies did a few years ago. They got SO DOMINANT that there wasn't any interest in watching games because people just assumed they'd destroy all theirs opponents.

Couldn't of happened to a more deserving group of players

Sounds like Stan Van Gundy had some coin on the game. Dude was getting frustrated lol

Did Illinois sign Brad Underwood to a lifetime contract during halftime?

For ppl who don't know UCONN head coach father is a Legend head coach out of (NJ St. Anthony's HS) it's in the Family DNA to win. That's a fact. Let that sink in. Respectfully. 💪🏽🤟🏽✨

I’m from CT and I did not know we were this good Lmao

" SHOCK & AWE " ! GO RABID HUSKIES ! SICK DEFENSE ! BIG EAST BEAST 👹 & REPEAT ! ! 👹

how do you even let a team go on a 30-0 run

I know Illinois was like WTh 😭

This level of play is why they won the title this year. Unbelievable.

🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😂😂😂😂 🫵 hahahahahaha Illinois hahahahahaha they really thought they had a chance

The coach for Illinois sucked he didn't make any adjustments

Muy nervo por Illionia

As someone cheering for Uconn.....Alabama might be able to keep up. Hopefully Alabama loses

@2:06 lol. Andy Warhol was right!

All I can say is if this team is not in the finals this week I would be shocked. Alabama would have to play their best basketball to beat UConn.

Was really hoping for a game here. No. Disappointed in the fighting Illini. Just blown out of the gym!

Who won the game?

poor Illinois 😮

And that’s college basketball for ya. Lost way too many bets this year on ridiculous runs like this

Clingan the Klingon!!!

Illinois just couldn't match the intensity of UCONN. How many times did they get beat on run-outs?

Commentators just stating the obvious. Was Illinois subbing or trying different things during the run, and everything was failing? I get UConn doing the unprecedented, but you need help from the other team to make it happen.

Illinois is division 1?

Just put them in the NBA

Purdue or noone has a shot vs dawgs

30 to 0 run a I don't like blowouts in the tournament

The fighting Illini did not fight in the 2nd half lol

No,I'm not kidding and I'm a Uconn fan. I just feel they need to win a lot more games overall. I just believe that Kentucky,Kansas,UNC and Duke are the only true Bluebloods at this time,but our Huskies are getting there.

It almost looks like Illinois is shaving points almost looks staged

Subtract the points from "In tbe paint" 3 second violations and Uconn lost.

I’m sad.

First

third

Absolutely pathetic

Uconn is looking pretty good. If they win the title and a couple more I might start considering them to be Bluebloods status.

if i was in that court playing for illinois and i notice they kept us at 23 for the past 15 minutes? whoo, i would "lightly" bump uconn players everytime they get a driving or fastbreak opportunity. 😢 dont care if i get a foul, tech, ejection, maybe even suspension, its just a matter of putting some fear into uconn and derail their momentum then maybe give some of my teammates a spark. (Remember: basketball is a mental game also. I don't mean to really injure opposing teams, but the reality of basketball is little techniques, like bumping, lightly pushing, trashtalking, can help your team get traction and momentum.) 😅😅😅

This is sad. You can even get one FT? UConn is good but not that good😢

Not fun to watch. Uconn missed alot but always got loose balls. Illinois just caved. Didn't even show up after half. Yeah Uconn you win big when you get chippers

Obviously not showing Kunis offense, but they missed multiple wide open 3s and missed 2 point blank layups. So this really wasn't a dominant 30-0 run. Offensively maybe, but not on the whole.

Duke will beat UConn mark my words

This proves that the mafia is still in control of some of the games. My high school basketball team wouldn't have allowed uconn to score 30 unanswered points

That's good because you are not a blueblood. Not even close.

I am going to say that illinois fell apart in the second half. But there is an element here that no one is speaking of. The first half, even acknowledged by the tv announcers " if one were to say the refs are letting them play, that would be an UNDERSTATEMENT!" There were probably four or five blatant fouls by Clingan and Karaban that were not called when Illinois was driving to the rim. If these fouls were called, first of all Clingan would of been sitting out the entire first half at about the 15 min mark. I believe illinois allowed this frustration to get to them and came out in the second half feeling disheartened and desperate, this also allowed Uconn to get their momentum going and as anyone knows that is probably the greatest element of winning in almost any sporting competition especially at the higher levels, I noticed on TV they never showed slow motion replays of these drives and clingan blocks and denials. Shannon ended up on the floor on at least 4 drives with no calls. no replay on any of them. but the announcers did comment. watch the game again and pay attention to the 1st 10 minutes. So before all you Uconn fanatics give uconn all the credit just know the first half officiating had a lot, lot, lot to do with it.

Very weak dude ,very weak. Uconn fans never know what they are talking about.

🤦‍♂️ can't stand uconn they're pretty annoying

Danny Hurley may be a good coach but he has the maturity of a middle schooler... Hat backwards, throwing confetti in the air, thumping his chest after the game... Hey Danny, go watch some videos of a couple coaches who won more titles than you ever will - John Wooden and Coach K. That's how you act as a coach when you win a big game...

Only uconn fans cry over it,duh!

The Fall will be great
