*The fix was on in that loss to Duke in '91. 45 game win streak. Blew Duke out in the Championship the previous year by 30. Returned the same starting five. Players photographed in "The Fixer's" hot tub.

The Rebs were amazing, and were probably the most talented team that has played the game. Hell, they probably could have beaten 1/2 of the clubs in the NBA that season. Still, I stand by my assertion that the '89 Illinois team was more athletic.
ETA: concur re the fix in '91, though without fix we would never have had the Bobby Hurley to Grant Hill alley oop to open the game: still an amazing play.
