Here it is: 10:25 of highlights from #Illini basketball exhibition win at Cincinnati... Just about every Illinois score I filmed.
I also included some Cincinnati highlights, since I know people had questions about the defense.
Watch here:

NEW: Oregon QB Dante Moore is OUT at Illinois.
The Ducks will also be without their leading wide receiver, Evan Stewart.
Both teams will be playing backup quarterbacks.
#Illini WR Jayshon Platt listed as probable.
Bilas did not include Mirkovic on his first, second or third team. He is listed as honorable mention.
He did include Quentin Coleman on his All-Freshman team.
Jay Bilas went to work on his preseason All-America teams.
Who did he get right, and who got snubbed? spr.ly/6010BHX6fy

Sources: Maryland coach Mike Locksley has been dismissed. Maryland dropped to 2-5 on Saturday after a last-second loss to Rutgers. Locksley is 39-54 overall at Maryland, including his interim stint in 2015. Maryland is on a bye this week.
Oregon head coach Dan Lanning says preparing for #Illini true freshman QB Michael Clayton is a challenge, with very little college tape to look at.
He says the Ducks will watch some high school film, but also don't expect the identity of the Illinois offense to change.
Full answer:
Oregon head coach Dan Lanning on preparing to take on Illinois:
"It's a really well-coached team. Coach Bielema always does a phenomenal job..."
Says #Illini do 'as good a job as anybody in football' in getting their playmakers the ball. Calls the defense 'extremely unique.'
Highly complimentary of the Illinois wideouts.

Ohio State coach Ryan Day said that QB Julian Sayin is out indefinitely. There’s a plan being put in place for Sayin not being available for both the regular season and postseason. He said there’s no specific timeline on the recovery. He’s dealing with an injury on his throwing arm.

"I don't plan on going anywhere."
#Illini offensive lineman Brandon Henderson isn't focused on the decision of whether or not to come back to Illinois next season, but says he doesn't have a reason to leave:
"I've been here since my freshman year... I've seen what Coach B can do."
Bielema visited Henderson's family during the bye week:
"It just shows how much her cares."

#Illini tight end Kaden Feagin and pass game coordinator Mike Neu on Michael Clayton's performance at MSU:
Feagin: "Michael's a confident kid."
"He knows what he's doing... I don't think we really have to change much because he's such a focused kid."
Neu: "He made some impressive throws."
"He was ready."
