What channel is Indiana men's basketball vs. No. 11 Illinois on? Betting odds

Indiana basketball seeks to bounce back from consecutive losses when it visits Illinois.

The Hoosiers (12-7, 4-4 Big Ten) will have a week to regroup from their struggles. IU had a rough first 30 minutes at Wisconsin before finding its stride in the final 10, scoring 31 points in that closing stretch. The Hoosiers have committed just 10 turnovers in each of their past three games, but they have lost the rebounding battle in five straight.

One key question: Will Hoosiers center Kel'el Ware be available? Coach Mike Woodson didn't say whether Ware, who missed the Wisconsin game with a lower body injury, will take the court today.

IU's leaders: Malik Reneau (16.5 points, 40.6% on 3s, 6.1 rebounds); Kel'el Ware (14.2 points, 41.7% 3s, 9.4 rebounds); Mackenzie Mgbako (10.8 points, 3.8 rebounds); Trey Galloway (10.6 points, 3.9 assists). Woodson is in his third season as coach.

No. 11 (USA TODAY) Illinois (14-5, 5-3) is coming off an overtime loss to Northwestern in which it dominated the boards (+14) couldn't convert its extra opportunities (40.8% shooting). Terrence Shannon Jr. made his second appearance, and first start, since being reinstated to the team. He had been suspended for six games after being charged with rape in Kansas.

Illinois team leaders: Shannon (20.5 points, 37.0% 3s); Marcus Domask (15.1 points, 3.4 assists); Coleman Hawkins (12.0 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.9 steals); Quincy Guerrier (11.8 points, 8.1 rebounds). Brad Underwood is in his sixth season as coach.

Indiana swept last season's games against the Illini and have won three in a row overall.
