Illinois needed to show some life in this game but failed to do so. Now they sit at 12-8 overall and 2-5 in Big Ten play.
Here are my three observations from the loss to Michigan.
Point Guard Play has Deteriorated
I have rehashed the point guard situation in just about every ‘three observation’ article I have posted. But, the situation has changed since the season began.
To begin the season it was Tracy Abrams leading the way with Jaylon Tate as the backup with Te’Jon Lucas getting few minutes after that.
