Michigan hasn't beaten Illinois in basketball since Jan. 10, 2019. Today, the Wolverines will have a chance to beat the Fighting Illini and secure a double-bye in the Big Ten Tournament.

Michigan (22-6, 14-3) hosts Illinois (18-11, 10-8) at Crisler Center today. The Wolverines are 3.5-point favorites, and ESPN's FPI gives them a 59 percent chance to win.

Tip-off is scheduled for 3:45 p.m. on CBS directly after Wisconsin-MSU.

Speaking of that game, if MSU loses and Michigan wins, the Wolverines will hold a 1.0-game lead over every other team in the Big Ten.

According to Jon Rothstein, Rubin Jones will be available today. Sam Walters is still out.
