Illinois has come in to its own of late. A team that was once an after-thought in college basketball has shown a tenacity to beat good teams.
This weekend, the Illini honor one of the greatest teams of all-time, the Flyin’ Illini, while playing one of the worst teams in the Big Ten. At 3-12 in conference play, Penn State looks to be another notch in the win column for the Illini. That said, this team also beat Michigan a few weeks back, so the Illini will need to be on guard if they hope to take down Penn State.
