Illini played a solid second half against Wofford in a 78-64 win. The defense really clamped down and the offense executed pretty well in the half court all night long against a team that wanted to slow the pace.
Wofford is no UNC, but they beat Georgia and gave Pitt a major scare early in the year. Those guys just did not miss in the first half from behind the arc tonight (8 threes) but a 12-31 finish suggests that they did not get much in the last twenty minutes.
This is the first of four games in eight days for the Illini, as the competition starts to ratchet up a bit. I'm eager to see how they respond.
