McCamey gets 27, Illinois shocks No. 11 Wisconsin

MADISON, Wis. (AP) Illinois celebrated with all its fans on Saturday. The cheers coming from the Illini locker room on Tuesday night were even sweeter.

Demetri McCamey scored 27 points and Mike Tisdale added 19 on 8-of-11 shooting to lead Illinois to a 63-56 upset over No. 11 Wisconsin, snapping the Badgers' 51-0 home record against unranked Big Ten opponents under coach Bo Ryan.

"It's even greater tonight than Saturday, because we put ourselves in real good position," McCamey said. "We got a road win in one of the toughest places to play in college basketball, so it just means so much more to beat a good Wisconsin team." (MORE)
