You failed to mention that nearly the entire Illini team has been sick or injured during the month of February? That is the reason that they are struggling. Last minute, make-shift lineups. Players having to sit out (or leave) during the course of the game. This article does not take any of that into account. We don't even know who is going to be able to play tonight, or be healthy enough to stay on the floor.

No. 3 Duke will travel to Madison Square Garden to take on a skidding Illinois squad. The Blue Zone has an overview of the Fighting Illini, along with a key stat, X-factor and three keys to a Blue Devil win.
