The Illini pulled out a close one tonight against Mizzou, with Pruitt scoring near the end, and Missouri turning the ball over when they tried to score. Pruitt and Meacham played really well, and Randle did OK when he was in there. Frazier's troubles continued, with low production of assists and too many turnovers. Demetri McCamey actually looked quicker and more capable at running the motion offense compared to Frazier. Mike Davis looked good out there tonight, and he does add some scoring to the line up. Meacham did a nice job as well, despite some turnover issues. It was a physical game, and Illinois could have been better at the boards, but in the end they won an ugly game with their defense holding down the Missouri scoring. The pressing defense of Mizzou also did not give them too much of an advantage, since the turnovers were fairly even. Box Score
Not sure if the Illini are back on track, but it feels great to get a win against a tough opponent.
