Illini notebook: Zook goes off on team

Even if another close loss was enough to make most happy, it did little for Illinois coach Ron Zook.

Morale victories don't do anything for Zook, who now is 4-20 in his third year at Illinois after a 40-34 loss to Missouri on Saturday. During his weekly press conference, an irritated Zook raised his voice and wanted it known that there's no more room for mistakes, especially from veteran players.
