Ohio State vs. Illinois 2016 live game updates: Time, TV schedule, and how to watch

Thad Matta's young Bucks finally got off the schneid this past Monday -- and boy did that ever feel good.

Now Ohio State looks to build a new winning streak, against an Illinois team they've already defeated once this season.

Let's tune in and find out.
