Ohio State 77, Illinois 67

An embarrassing number of empty seats isn't the only thing that has @IlliniMBB in a foul mood as they leave the @UnitedCenter with a 77-67 loss to @OhioStateHoops. Whistled 26 times w/ Giorgi & Trent fouling out. Bad optics all the way around. #Illini pic.twitter.com/fYj5YDnfra

What happened (a lot of fouls), what it means (#Illini trying to figure out how to win) and what's next (finally, a game at State Farm Center). More from beat writer @srrichey on Wednesday night's 77-67 #Illini loss to Ohio State in Chicago https://t.co/itTxGVfQAU pic.twitter.com/92c2E8Uesp
