Then again, sandwiching a 10-point home loss to an average Big Ten opponent between 25-point-plus massacres of conference foes – Penn State and Indiana – is taking up-and-down to an extreme. By now, we know what the No.

The Indiana Hoosiers trail by as many as 30 points in the first half of a home game against the Illinois Fighting Illini.

Indiana basketball suffered one of the most lopsided home losses in program history on Tuesday night to Illinois:

After the first-half de-pantsing by Illinois, Indiana further embarrassed itself when Goode dangerously barreled into Illini center Tomislav Ivisic, who barked at Goode, setting off a mini-scrum in which Ballo – in his most spirited action of the night – rushed from halfcourt to the baseline to get in a shove on Ivisic.

Yet another win for Illinois comes with even more records. The Illini bounced back from their disappointing home loss to USC with a commanding victory Tuesday night over the Hoosiers in Bloomington. And it was the kind of defeat IU has NEVER had in history.
