February madness in the Big Ten

The Illini will have ample opportunity to prove that their heroics in Madison last night were no fluke, with road games remaining to be played at Purdue and Ohio State. The first order of business, however, will be holding serve at home against the Buckeyes on Sunday. To win that game Weber will need a big game from his featured scorer, who has quietly improved his performance to the point where it shares some pretty exclusive company.
