Coming into the season, the odds of Penn State beating Illinois three times were slim.

As were the odds of beating Northwestern twice away from home, especially in overtime.

But Penn State moved to 3-0 against Illinois Thursday night in the Big Ten Tournament, and edged out Northwestern 67-65 in OT the next night to move on to its first tournament semifinal since 2018.

If there were any doubt about Penn State’s NCAA Tournament chances, there isn’t anymore. Here’s how the people of Twitter reacted to the game.
