Illiniois almost tied it at the half but couldn't manage a lay up. Everything was half in then out the basket. Absolutely terrible. Illinois played bad with no emotion and deserved to lose but I thought the officiating was terrible.
They must've blown 3 or more travelling calls. Do commentators get in trouble if they point out the blatant non-calls. "They're letting them play" was the only response I heard to a non-call travel.
Illinois was in control of their own destiny and they said, "meh"
