Illinois basketball fans finally got the breakthrough they’ve been waiting for—taking down No. 13 Tennessee in Nashville with a gritty 75-62 victory. Despite being out-rebounded and facing a tough Vols squad, the Illini held their nerve, locked down key scorers, and shot nearly 40% from three. Social media lit up with Illini pride, playful smack talk, and plenty of celebration. With Big Ten play up next against Ohio State, the question now is: can Illinois keep this momentum rolling on the road? How are you feeling about the Illini’s chances this season? #Sports #IllinoisBasketball #IlliniNation
