Illinois trailed 28-23 at the half, but the top-seeded UConn again proved their opponents are never as close as they seem by scoring the first 25 points of the second half to complete a 30-0 burst, decimating Illinois 77-52. https://t.co/vGuGBtAwak
Honestly not sure who can beat UConn at this point. I’ve never seen a 30-0 run in the Elite 8 like we witnessed last night vs Illinois. https://t.co/18GTPk7occ

UCONN’S 30-0 RUN PROPELS THEM INTO ITS SECOND STRAIGHT FINAL FOUR 🔥 https://t.co/ByIHudkSrX
The UConn Huskies are the first team in the #MarchMadness seeding era (since 1979) to win and cover 10 straight games, per @EvanHAbrams. UConn has COVERED those games by over 13 PPG. Remarkable
Been updating this each round: UConn has won its four tournament games by average of 28.3 points per game. Among NCAA champions since 1985, that's tied with 1996 Kentucky (28.3) for the highest margin through 4 rounds.
Near the end of the first half, the game was tied. UConn (-8.5) would go on a 30-0 run and punch their ticket to the Final Four. https://t.co/iTXf5726bc
UConn has won 10 straight NCAA Tournament games by double figures. Back to the Final Four. The Huskies are inevitable.
An unreal cover run from UConn in the tourney 💰 + They are 1st team in seeding era ('79) to win & cover 10 in a row. + 26-6 ATS run in the dance since 2009 (covered by double-digits in 14 gms). + Favorites of 8 or more are 18-5 ATS in this year's dance. https://t.co/SGXkNFFfNV
Has there ever been a 30-0 run in the Elite 8?
This will be UConn's 10th straight NCAA Tournament game that results in a double-figure win. They have now won, if my math is correct, 31 of their last 32 non-Big East games.... by double-figures as well. ABSOLUTELY. INSANE.
A 30-0 run in the Elite 8 has to be a record several times over, yeah? Absurdity
UConn is rolling 😳 The Huskies were once tied with Illinois at 23 points in the first half of their Elite Eight matchup. Then they went on a 30-0 run... https://t.co/qc7PbgWmb8
UConn’s 30-0 run tonight is the program’s longest since it started a game vs. New Hampshire 32-0 in 1990, per @UConnMBB good GAWD https://t.co/MG2KERIZXJ
UConn looked like the Globetrotters on that 27-0 run. 😭 https://t.co/i97eJavSEP
One of those unforgettable "where were you when..." moments just happened @tdgarden @UConnMBB just went on a 30-0 run against Illinois to take a 30 point second half lead, 53-23 Wow! Unbelievable!!! @MarchMadnessMBB @wbz
“UCONN do it!” 30-0 run 😳 https://t.co/D4f6kQ2MjV
Just witnessed something in basketball I never thought one would see in an Elite 8 game … UConn with a 30-0 run vs Illinois … the game was 23-23 prior to the run.
With 1:50 left in the first half, UConn led by 2 points. Then the Huskies went on a 30-0 run. Not sure I've ever seen anything like that before in a game of this level.
#UConn went on a 30-0 run before Illinois stopped the bleeding. One point off the longest run I’ve ever covered, which was a 31-0 Iona run against Saint Peter’s in 2012. If Illinois didn’t get a chasedown stop on Samson Johnson’s dunk attempt a minute ago, it would have been 32-0
Just your standard 30-0 run in the Elite 8
uconn 30-0 run unreal 😂💀
A 30-0 run in the Elite Eight? #uconn
Never seen a 30-0 run in 🏀 😯 #Elite8
It's now a 16-0 UConn run https://t.co/9DXO2ldBTf
That's a 16-0 run for UConn, spanning from the 1:51 mark in the first half to the 15:59 mark in the second half. Incredible surge by an incredible team.
11-0 UConn run to open the second half… https://t.co/wyMvC40ksd
