Brian Cook Powers Illini Past Idaho St.

Illinois vs. Idaho St.

Mired in a holiday stupor against a much weaker (but inspired) opponent, Illinois found itself trailing 46-40 with 11 minutes to go against Idaho St. Enter former Illini great Brian Cook on the big screen during a timeout to inspire the fans to make some noise, a 22-6 run later, and the Illini come away with a 71-60 win before the Christmas break.
