It's in Mississippi, so it's as close as they could get to an SEC school.So Gameday passed on Champaign in favor of hosting in front of ~250 people at the academic/athletic powerhouse Alcorn State. A reminder of why I never watch ESPN
Though it may be disappointing to not get Gameday, I get why they chose HBCUs. Sorry if you’re butt hurt about that, but HBCUs deserve attention and recognition.So Gameday passed on Champaign in favor of hosting in front of ~250 people at the academic/athletic powerhouse Alcorn State.

My "long time" may differ from yours, but I love the sentiment! I haven't been consistently optimistic for more than a season or two since Mackovic. Here's wishing Coach B and his staff great success and longevity at First & Kirby.Time to start a new chapter in Illinois football. Coach Underwood has the basketball program on the right path, and I think Coach Bielema is going to be the best football coach we have had in a long time. ILL!!!
