Nebraska at No. 5 Illinois (-16½), 7 p.m., Big Ten Network. Illinois, which is coming off a defeat at Michigan State, is 4-0 ATS after a loss this year and has the extra incentive of not feeling great about the last time the Illini played Nebraska, an overtime win two weeks ago in Lincoln. Ayo Dosunmu and Kofi Cockburn combined for 52 points in that game, and the others didn’t do so hot. I’m sure Brad Underwood is letting them hear it this week. Also, the worst loss of the year for Illinois was probably at Missouri. The next time out the Illini beat Minnesota, 92-65. Nebraska forces teams to shoot a lot of 3s, so the Illini will have to shoot it well to cover this spread. They shoot 38.9 percent from 3 this year, so they’re capable. The pick: Illinois

I'd seen this video before but didn't realize he broke his nose.  That's pretty bush league by MSU.

Yeah, that dude played like 9 minutes.  3 fouls...one got him ejected, one was punching Kofi in the head...dude was probably told to ahem, "play hard"

Look for Ayo to be out tonight.

Take NU +8 for the first half.

This is going to be an ugly game for Illinois.  Won't be shocked to see a loss here.

Well...just because you huddle on the playing court it doesn't mean it is your spot.  That only matters on the sidelines.

I get that, its more the victimized look he had when they called double techs. If you walk into a teams huddle like that you're probably looking at starting something. Especially with how touchy the first half was up to that point.

These refs are trying to set a ton after the brutal prison ball that happened the other night between MSU and Illinois.
