With March quickly approaching, every game means more than the last, and for the Illini, that will involve tackling a slew of challenging opponents on tap in the coming weeks. First-year head coach, John Groce, has done a remarkable job thus far after making the jump from Ohio University, but the 2012-13 Illinois basketball schedule will not let up from here on out, as the Orange and Blue will face nationally ranked foes at least six more times, in addition to rematches with the rising Badgers and Boilermakers, who successfully stole wins from the Illini in January.
The crowds at Assembly Hall have long provided an essential home court advantage, and fans will get plenty more Big Ten action before the regular season ends. Browse the marketplace for 2012-13 Illinois basketball tickets for matchups against nationally ranked Michigan (1/27) and Indiana (2/7), as well as Wisconsin (2/3), Purdue (2/13), Penn State (2/21), and Nebraska (3/2). You also can begin making plans for the annual Big Ten Tournament, which this year will go down at the United Center in Chicago, March 14-17.
