Illinois started 4-12 and 0-5 in the B10 as they have played the #4 schedule and have two freshman as their leading scorers. The Illini have gone 6-6 since that start but are coming off a stretch of 3 straight losses at Wisconsin and at Purdue plus vs Penn St. Northwestern has lost 9 straight going 1-7-1 ATS and in their last 5 games have shot 35.5%. Illinois is playing with revenge and was 0-11 from downtown in that game. Look for them to step up here at home Sunday evening on the Big10 Network.
