Illini ready for 2nd straight Top 10 test

By: Aaron Bennett

Updated: January 8, 2013

CHAMPAIGN - The Illinois basketball team is getting ready to face their second-straight Top 10 opponent when they host Minnesota Wednesday night.

The last time that happened in the Big Ten was all the way back in 1987. That year Illinois lost both games to No. 4 Iowa and No. 6 Purdue, but after Saturday's win over Ohio State, Illinois has a chance to win both of its Top 10 matchups this time around.
