This loss really puts a big question mark on whether or not the Illini will make the postseason. They needed to win their home games to really help solidify a bid come March.
But, now that Illinois has dropped a home game to Maryland, let’s look at that they have next.
Illinois currently sits at 12-6 overall and 2-3 in the Big Ten. I am going to base this road map on how the Illini are currently playing.

The next game is at No. 17 Purdue which is likely a loss.
