Key to Illini offense is finding the right beat
CHAMPAIGN — The Raising Cane's in Nacogdoches, Texas, had a deal several years ago. Every time Stephen F. Austin scored more than 60 points fans in attendance could get a voucher for free chicken.
The Lumberjacks team Brad Underwood inherited in 2013-14 didn't exactly threaten to put Raising Cane's out of business the year prior. Stephen F. Austin played at one of the slowest adjusted tempos in the country and had an offense that ranked in the bottom third in the country in efficiency while averaging just 64.8 points per game.
