Game thread: Michigan looks for payback vs. Illinois

When: 2:15 p.m.

Where: Crisler Center.

TV: Big Ten Network.

Radio: WWJ-AM (950; other radio affiliates).

Game notes: You may as well consider this one an NCAA tournament elimination game right here. With similar overall and conference records, it's hard to imagine a team with five Big Ten losses before February making March Madness without a modern-day miracle. The extra incentive for the Wolverines comes in the 85-69 loss at Illinois a week and a half ago. Oh, and add in the comments from Maverick Morgan, who scored 16 in that Illinois win and called U-M "a white-collar team" after the game.
