Illini find silver lining
CHAMPAIGN – Illinois coach Tim Beckman isn’t calling Saturday’s 31-14 loss to Wisconsin a victory, moral or otherwise.
But the first-year Illini coach said Monday he saw at least some of what he needs to from his team (2-4 overall, 0-2 Big Ten) in the first 45 minutes of the 31-14 loss in Madison.
“It was a four-quarter football game, I think we played three,” Beckman said. “In the game of football you’ve got to finish.”
