Well deserved honor. Stay healthy, kid!

I’d say that’s a fair shake. Jake had a monster game and way more TFLs than Brooks, but Brooks got an interception and was going up against a better team the whole time.

Congrats Jake!

co really?

co really?

My first thought as well.
But at least he got some recognition for (CO) BIG record for TFL in a single game#35

 

[ILLGang'19]

Now bring home that Butkus award #35

FYI it's Hansen not Hasen. Congrats to Jake!

Well deserved honor for Jake. It's young players like this who will lead the Illini back to respectability.

No respect from BTN. We are currently ranked dead last in their power rankings of the conference. They could at least spell Jake's name right!

Yeah winning by seven points, needing an interception to seal it, against one of if not the worst MAC teams, doesn't really instill confidence in a team. Lots of ball left, but the open act was 14th place bad.

Hansen is the kind of story you wish Dudek could've enjoyed. Props to him from coming back from a difficult injury and immediately inserting himself into the record books here. That's the kind of story that keeps me following football.
