Kofi Cockburn played a solid game. He finished with 17 points and eight rebounds, falling two rebounds short of his 41st career double-double.
Indiana (16-6, 7-5) was led by Race Thompson with 13 points and six rebounds. Xavier Johnson had 12 points, five rebounds and five assists on a day preseason All-American Trayce Jackson-Davis missed the final 15 1/2 minutes of the first half because of foul trouble.
Frazier and Jacob Grandison finally gave Illinois the upper hand in the last 10 minutes.
Grandison started a decisive 16-3 run with back-to-back 3s, the second giving Illinois a 48-45 lead - its first since less than three minutes into the game.
