Illinois Fighting Illini will be without star guard when it next faces Nebraska
Michael Hickey/GettyImagesWhen Illinois and Nebraska face off for the second time this season, the Illini will have to do so without star guard Kylan Boswell.
Boswell, who was the second leading scorer for Illinois, went down with a broken hand and got unfortunate news on January 20. He'll be out for at least a month with the injury.
Nebraska and Illinois play for the second time on February 1, well inside that time period. Considering the Huskers already have a victory over Brad Underwood's squad - in Champaign - it's not hard to imagine they are more than a little bit deflated by not having Kylan Boswell able to go when they come to Lincoln.
