Road won't get easier for Illini
January 13, 2011 5:20 PM
The Illini (13-4 overall, 3-1) play at Wisconsin (12-4, 2-2) Saturday (2 p.m., BTN) before a two-game home stand against preseason conference favorite Michigan State and No. 2 Ohio State. The degree of difficulty rises for the Illini, who scored a 63-56 win over the Badgers in the Kohl Center a year ago and already defeated Wisconsin 69-61 on Jan. 2.
Illinois center Mike Tisdale and point guard Demetri McCamey combined for 46 points in last season's win in Madison.
"They think they owe us for beating them up there last year," Tisdale said. "We've got to go in there with a better mind-set, ready to play. We have to come out there with a mind-set to win."
