Illinois 78, Nicholls State 70 OT

Illini get out alive 78-70 in OT... Feliz drug his team to the finish line. Win is a win but things heat up QUICK out in Arizona. Not an inspiring performance.

The #Illini use big performances from Andres Feliz (23 points, 11 rebounds), Ayo Dosunmu (21 points, seven rebounds), and Kofi Cockburn (10 points, 11 rebounds) to move to 1-0 on the year. https://t.co/714EFNOUlz

That would have been such an incredible disaster. A rim-backboard-rim-rim-in Trent Frazier free throw away from losing to KenPom #294 Nicholls State.
