    Frontcourt: B+

    When Mike Davis plays like that, the


    Illini are a much tougher foe. But he
    was the only player rebounding. He
    needs more help from Mike Tisdale
    and Bill Cole, and a few rebounds by
    the guards wouldn’t hurt. Illinois did a
    job on Purdue’s JaJuan Johnson, who
    was 1-for-10 from the field.
    Backcourt: A
    Demetri McCamey showed that he’s
    truly about winning. He didn’t force
    shots when the Purdue defense was
    built to keep him from scoring. He
    had 11 assists at halftime. Guard D.J.
    Richardson played a solid game, but
    he had trouble with E’Twaun Moore
    down the stretch.
    Bench: B-
    Other than a 13-point game from
    guard Brandon Paul, there wasn’t
    much from the bench.
    Overall: B+
    Had it not been for a weak job
    rebounding and the Illini running out
    of gas down the stretch — only six
    players logged more than 5 minutes
    — Illinois might have left with its
    biggest victory this season. If the Illini
    play with this toughness and intensity,
    there could be good things in the next
    two weeks. Upcoming games against
    Michigan and Minnesota are must
    wins.
