QUOTABLE

Illinois coach Brad Underwood on Saturday's loss to Michigan State: “It’s almost a flip of the game in Champaign when we got to the line and were aggressive. I think we’re one of the top teams in the country in terms of fewest fouls committed. Give them all the credit. They were obviously the aggressor. You’re a passive, soft team when you’re fouling, and, obviously, we fouled a lot (Saturday) so we were pretty passive.”
