Illini fall to No. 13 Michigan State

EAST LANSING, Mich. – Illinois had a shot to be the first team in the nation with four wins over currently ranked teams.

The Fighting Illini, though, couldn’t follow up a strong first half well enough to knock off No. 13 Michigan State on Thursday night.

Keith Appling led a pivotal run early in the second half and finished with 24 points and seven assists to help the Spartans to an 80-75 victory.
