Where Can I Bet on Fighting Illini College Basketball Games From Illinois?

Those in Illinois looking to place bets on their beloved Fighting Illini this March Madness will be unable to do so with the state regulated websites like DraftKings and FanDuel.  Sportsbooks licensed overseas like BetUS are accessible from Illinois to those 18 and up while local bookies offer yet another option but require a referral.  These local bookies also allow wagering on credit in most cases.

Illinois Fighting Illini Have Been Hot

Terrance Shannon Jr. scored 29 points, Marcus Domask had 22 and Coleman Hawkins added 20 to lead No. 13 Illinois to a 105-97 victory over Minnesota to close out the month of February as they get into full March Madness mode.   There is little question the Illini will be partaking in this year's tournament.

Illinois scored over 85 points for the 8th time in their last ten games. 

“People think the Big Ten is a big, slow, slug ‘em out league. It’s not,” Illinois coach Brad Underwood said. “We have Zach (Purdue's 7-foot-4 Zach Edey), but this a guard league. The best guards I've seen in our league since I've been here. You have to score to win in our league.

“Look at Minnesota's guards, Elijah Hawkins is special. He had 12 assists and no turnovers against us. And (freshman) Cam Christie looks like a pro already.”

Illinois will be tested on March 2. They were set to face an 18-10 Wisconsin team that is 13-2 on its own court.
