What You Need to Know
The Fighting Illini made it into the final of the Big Ten Tournament, taking that game into overtime versus Ohio State and ultimately winning the Championship.
This season was the freshman year of highly ranked center Kofi Cockburn. He scored 18 of his 26 points in the first half, and No. 3 Illinois beat No. 5 Iowa 82-71 to advance to the Big Ten Tournament title game.
Illinois has had a highly successful season for sports bettors with the Fighting Illini covering in 16 of their 26 games (there was also a push).
Through the end of the 2017–18 season, Illinois ranks 12th all-time in winning percentage and 15th all-time in wins among all NCAA Division I men's college basketball programs.
