Shaun Pruitt scored the go-ahead basket on a putback with 35 seconds to go, his third shot in the sequence, and Illinois survived a wild finish to beat Missouri 59-58 on Saturday night in the annual Braggin’ Rights game.
Pruitt had 14 points and Trent Meacham 13 for Illinois (7-4), which has an eight-game winning streak in the annual holiday season neutral-site game.
