Minnesota got back on the winning track and took out last week's Michgan loss on Illinois. Illinois looked like they were just going through the motions to play out the season.
Minnesota was able to get many second line players in the game and, for the most part, didn't suffer a severe drop in production.

The stories from each school are here for Minnesota and Illinois with a box as well.
