The Braggin' Rights game is Mizzou's next opportunity to answer the bell

How is everybody doing? Everything's fine right? We're all good. Let's talk about Illinois


About The Illini

So.

Illinois isn't very good. They've got some talent, but it's been tough sledding for John Groce and his Fighting Illini in 2015, as a really solid lineup has fallen on dark times with the injury bug to their interior depth. Graduate Transfer big man Michael Thorne, Jr was expected to make a big impact, but tore his meniscus and is out for the year. Leron Black, every Mizzou fans least favorite player for his hard foul on Teki last year, is also out for an undetermined amount of time.
