Illinois basketball is on fire—after a dominant week, the Illini have jumped to No. 13 in the latest coaches poll, riding a five-game win streak. Their defense was especially impressive, holding Rutgers to just 16 first-half points, and freshman Keaton Wagler is quickly becoming a fan favorite with back-to-back standout performances. With big road wins and a perfect Big Ten away record so far, Illinois is right in the mix with the conference’s best. Can this momentum carry them even higher? What’s your take on the Illini’s chances this season? #Sports #IllinoisBasketball #Illini
