When it was all said and done, Tuesday night was a Quad 1 win.
Illinois tied it up early at 7 apiece and didn't turn back (well, kinda). State Farm Center was rocking and No. 24 Illinois got a statement win at home against No. 10 Michigan State.
After losing its last three to Tom Izzo’s Spartans, Illinois corrected its path and stopped the current season skid at two games.
And Illinois got that “culture win” at home, at least according to head coach Brad Underwood.
So What Happened
I’m going to come out and say Illinois did not deserve to win this game.
