If Wisconsin would have lost on Saturday, it would be an even more meaningful Sunday for the Orange and Blue. But it is still pretty big considering we are eyeing that coveted double-bye in the Big Ten Tournament.
Here are the scenarios for the Illini on Sunday.
Illinois wins
This scenario automatically clinches the double-bye for the Illini. We are in the No. 4 spot right now, one game ahead of Ohio State and Iowa who both play today. So, if Illinois wins, we get to start Friday instead of Thursday in the Big Ten Tournament.
