The Michigan Wolverines have only four games remaining on their regular season schedule, and the highest-ranked opponent of the bunch comes to Ann Arbor today. The Illinois Fighting Illini boast the status of being the No. 15 team in the country after a slow start to their regular season saw them unranked.
Illinois has gotten to this point without consistent play from one of their best players from a year ago, Andre Curbelo. The sophomore guard has been dealing with nagging injuries and hasn’t been the guy to take over for Ayo Dosunmu, which many expected him to be.
