Illinois defense looks for 60-minute spark

"We haven't been worth [crud] in my thoughts," Koenning said of the red zone defense. "We don't have enough safeties or enough D-linemen to play goal-line package, so have to continue to play our base package. It's been something we need to do a better job of and work on it.

"But in fairness to us, we're handicapped down there."
