That's an order.
I'm serious. That wasn't just a clever "hey Illini fans, make those bowl plans because we're totally bowl eligible." I am urging all Illini fans to start informing friends, family, and bosses that some time around the 1st of January, they will be out of town.
Here's why: The next step to building a program is fan support. We simply must show the Big Ten that when Illinois has a successful football teams, the fans will show. They did it in the 80's when Mike White resurrected the program. They did it in 2007 when we went to the Rose Bowl. And they'll need to do it again in January.
