They went, they won, they even got the t-shirt

Wow, they even got the correct state outline on the shirt.

A shirt designed to make some “I-L-L”

They need to enjoy it while they can.

“That’s not the Illinois I know”

- Bailey and the 51st silly crowd, maybe.

Tell me you’ve never been south of South Loop without *telling* me you’ve been south of South Loop.

Much cooler than the Griffindor scarfs.

“Blessed by Sister Jean”

“The Illini look forward to avenge this loss… sometime in the 2060s, according to scheduling”

Comment by Oswego Willy Wednesday, Mar 24, 21 @ 2:21 pm
Have to give them credit. They took down the over hyped, overrated and out of the tourney Illini.

It comes in one size, B1G

The Ramblings of a Winner

Comment by Oswego Willy Wednesday, Mar 24, 21 @ 2:26 pm
Lord, I was born a rambling man, trying to win a title and doing the best I can

It took me until late yesterday to come around to putting the Illini loss behind me. For a couple days I thought I wouldn’t even root for Loyola. But they deserve it. They outplayed Illinois. And definitely out coached them.

Winning has consequences…and benefits.

Loyola is a basketball school.

Sour fate?

Comment by Rabid Wednesday, Mar 24, 21 @ 2:34 pm
I thought this was a blue state.

Comment by JoanP Wednesday, Mar 24, 21 @ 2:36 pm
This season Loyola beat Chicago State, UIC, Lewis U, U of St. Francis, ISU (twice), Bradley (twice), SIU (three times) and U of I.

I think that warrants a shirt.

=This season Loyola beat Chicago State, UIC, Lewis U, U of St. Francis, ISU (twice), Bradley (twice), SIU (three times) and U of I.=

They didn’t play NIU, EIU, WIU, or SIUE–however, if they did they most likely would have won anyway, possibly big.

My team went all the way to the Sweet Sixteen and all I got was this lousy T-shirt.

Comment by Tom Collins Wednesday, Mar 24, 21 @ 2:42 pm
Why does the design look so sad?

Comment by Candy Dogood Wednesday, Mar 24, 21 @ 2:44 pm
When you Crush the Orange, you get a t-shirt

Comment by Oswego Willy Wednesday, Mar 24, 21 @ 2:46 pm
Can I get one in Orange and Blue?

Comment by DuPage Saint Wednesday, Mar 24, 21 @ 3:05 pm
There’s no “I” in team.

Comment by Jibba Wednesday, Mar 24, 21 @ 3:07 pm
===Can I get one in Orange and Blue?===

Of course.

Of course it says “Their State” with the Loyola mascot marking where UIUC is, but orange and blue, yeah…

:)

What did Sister Jean give up for lent? Losing! Ramble on Loyola!

Comment by Eire17 Wednesday, Mar 24, 21 @ 3:13 pm
You can’t spell Loyola without L-O-L.

Comment by The Captain Wednesday, Mar 24, 21 @ 3:14 pm
We had a Rambler when I was a kid. Not a great memory.

Comment by Bruce( no not him) Wednesday, Mar 24, 21 @ 3:25 pm
It reminds me of the billboard wars during Big Ten Conference Football with both Illinois and Northwestern claiming to be the “Big Ten” team for Chicago. That grudge match did not go so well for Lovie Smith.

Loyola played a terrific game on Sunday. The Ramblers should have been ranked higher for tournament.

Comment by Practical Politics Wednesday, Mar 24, 21 @ 4:06 pm
That’s a shirt I’d like to see adopted everywhere not just by Loyola U. Very nice design indeed.
