Tre Holloman scored 17 points to lead No. 12 Michigan State to an 80-78 win over No. 19 Illinois on Sunday in East Lansing, Mich.

Frankie Fidler and Coen Carr each added 11 points for the Spartans (16-2, 7-0 Big Ten), who have won 11 straight games.

Will Riley scored 19 points off the bench for Illinois (13-5, 5-3), which spent most of the game without leading scorer Kasparas Jakucionis, who played only nine minutes due to foul trouble.

Holloman gave Michigan State an 80-77 lead via two free throws with 5.4 seconds left. Michigan State then decided to foul Kylan Boswell intentionally with 3.9 seconds left, and he made the first free throw he took to make it 80-78 Spartans.

Boswell intentionally missed the second free throw and got his own rebound near the baseline to the left of the basket, but officials ruled that his potential game-tying shot attempt while falling out of bounds went over the back of the basket. Michigan State then inbounded the ball to kill the remaining 0.9 seconds on the clock.
