    Illinois Football Uniforms

    Still not crazy about the I in Illini but I can look past that because these are pretty much exactly what I have in mind for the new uniforms. They take the classic look we currently have and add some white piping where i think it’s needed. I think/hope we end up with something a lot like these...

    Conference Realignment

    From one maniac to another, let's not jump to adding Rice while overlooking a two-time national champion, former power conference team that has produced 12 All Americans and one Heisman Trophy winner. Chicago's Big Ten team (?) - the Maroons from the University of Chicago

    Pregame: Illinois at Wisconsin, Friday, October 23rd, 7:00pm CT, BTN

    I'd love to see Isaiah Williams get some snaps in against Wisconsin. I've been looking forward to seeing that 2019 class (Williams, Beason, Cooper) make a difference on the field.

    Pregame: Illinois vs Maryland, Friday, February 7th, 7:00pm CT, FS1

    Illinois Loyalty Location Census

    Another duke here! Graduated in ‘15 and run under Newton like Banana. Went to UIUC and graduated this past May.
