Drew Neitzel scored nine of his 15 points during a key stretch in the second half, helping No. 8 Michigan State beat Illinois 51-41 and set a school record on Wednesday night.
The Spartans (19-2, 7-1 Big Ten) have their best 21-game record in program’s 109-year history.
The Illini (10-12, 2-7) didn’t make it easy.
Illinois went on a 17-2 run after a rough start, led at halftime and responded to Neitzel’s scoring flurry by taking a 32-31 lead.
