I'm a little surprised they are doing it this weekend. Don't they usually do the veteran and military salutes closer to Veteran's Day?

WR Hampton added to injury report for Oregon - OUT

Only WR they have left is Moore (I mean out of guys who actually play)

 

[Illini in Italy]

Remember when we beat Wisc when they were ranked #5. No one gave us a chance. I have a feeling we will see the same outcome. Maybe not how we won with a field goal but with a win.

If Houser was healthy, I would be fully in on predicting an upset. We've been rightly upset with how disappointing the Illinois' defense has been this year, but Oregon's offense is somehow even more disappointing:

Oregon's defense is starting to find their footing, and they'll be facing a true freshman making their first start. Lunney has his chance to stake his claim to being one of the elite offensive play callers if Illinois can pull off the upset.

Oregon 24
Illinois 15

Updated Gies Memorial Stadium Sellout Watch for the Oregon game.

This game was in sellout territory but tickets have understandably moved slowly the last few weeks and never got the momentum needed to officially sell it out. My official attendance guess: 58,400

"Oregon's offense is somehow even more disappointing:" Raiola is the worst QB in the B1G. He crapped out at Nebraska. His accuracy is so-so. His decision making is worse.

He is 0-1 against Illinois. Now most of the ducks other players are superior to ours, but I still see a chance to steal one here IMO........
