In addition to BU victim, Winona State beating Minnesota, here is another Big Ten result.

Illinois behind 17 from Warren Carter beat SIU-E 76-57.
The game stayed within one point until late in the first half, when Illinois pulled to a double digit lead. From there the Illini comfortably stretched the lead to nearly 20 points most of the 2nd half. Every Illini player played and scored, with ex-ISU player Marcus Arnold getting 2 points. Jamar Smith had 6 pts. and Chester Frazier had 13 both in a team high 33 minutes.
Creighton played their final exhibition and had a real battle on their hands for 3/4 of the contest.
University of Nebraska-Omaha hung tough and led at the half 32-31. It remained close, and was only a 2 point game until the final 10 minutes of the 2nd half when CU went on an 18-0 run and won 73-56.
Nate Funk had 14, Anthony Tolliver 15. Ty Morrison did not score, and in one disappointing stat, the Bluejays had 20 turnovers to only 17 assists.

trailing D-III Carroll College for most of the first half (by as much as nine) and trailing at the half to Carroll 28-25.
