The Buckeyes might not have 6-8 junior Zed Key (12.1 ppg, 8.1 rpg) after he hurt his knee Saturday vs. Iowa. He's the only Ohio State player taller than 6-6 who regularly gets substantial minutes. The Buckeyes visit an Illinois team that had won four straight until running out of gas last Thursday in an 80-65 home loss to Indiana. Coach Brad Underwood said his team missed 13 layups and 14 free throws due in part to fatigue, and gave the team a few days off to get ready for Ohio State. The Buckeyes, who are 1-5 ATS in their last six, had a quicker turnaround after beating the Hawkeyes on Saturday, then traveled to Champaign, Ill. Look for the Illini to win going away.
