Most worried about Cockburn. I just don't see much of an answer for him.

The answer to Kofi is his getting in foul trouble

How often has that happened?

The Baylor game

How often has that happened?

Amazingly, he had just 1 PF in the loss to a very physical Rutgers team. The other 4 starters had either 4 or 5 fouls. Three Illini fouled out of that game.

He did have 4 fouls in their loss to Missouri, and 5 other Illini also had 4. Unfortunately, NU doesn't draw a lot of fouls with their outside-in playing style.

So in other words, not very likely
