Illinois basketball fans finally got to see what this year’s team is truly capable of, and it was a showstopper in St. Louis. The Illini didn’t just outscore Missouri—they dominated on both ends, putting up 91 points with 15 threes and crushing the Tigers on the boards. Keaton Wagler’s breakout night and a deep supporting cast proved that Illinois isn’t just an offensive juggernaut—they’re starting to look scary on defense, too. After some early-season defensive struggles, this game felt like a turning point. Are we seeing the start of something special? What do you think the Illini’s ceiling really is this year? #Sports #IllinoisBasketball #Illini
