Illini football State of the Union

I mean, seriously, on Saturday, behold, all things are new. Banners in the stadium depicting our bowl wins (FINALLY). A new slogan aiming to recapture this state for orange and for blue (FINALLY). A coach with ideas like "Beck's Balcony", inviting student groups to use the balcony off his office (northeast corner of the stadium) to have a cookout and watch the game. A return of street fest. The team walking down First Street before game time. This is an administration committed to making football Saturdays a campus-wide event, not just a football game. FINALLY.
