January 3, 2013 7:44 AM
The Illini host No. 8 Ohio State on Saturday before No. 9 Minnesota comes to Assembly Hall on Wednesday. A loss at rebuilding Purdue reminded everyone how hard it is to win on the road in the Big Ten.
"The challenging thing about this league and the beauty of this league, tomorrow when you wake up, the next one is coming right at you," Illinois coach John Groce said. "Guys who stay on the mat get trampled in this league. You've got to man up. I expect our guys to do that. We've got an older team."
