    Week of 3/2 Bracketology

    Any idea what Friday session we will likely be playing in at the B1G Tournament? Either 6 or 7 Illinois: 13-5 with 2 likely wins left putting us at 15-5 MSU: 14-4 with a likely split left putting them at 15-5 Nebraska: 14-4 with a likely split left putting them at 15-5 Unsure of tie breaker...

    That seems generous, especially after the Wisconsin performance.

    Why are we settling for only in the first half?! Points on every possession!

    Pregame: Illinois at Washington, Saturday, October 25th, 2:30pm CT, BTN

    Sounds like the Huskies starting LT is out (likely for the year from what I read). Also watching their game against Michigan their TE was carted off the field which makes me believe he will also be out for this game. I expect Jacas to be lined up over the replacement LT all game, maybe this is...

    Gies Memorial Stadium

    Has anyone asked coach what enhancements he would like to see? Lovie had thoughts on the Smith Center and kind of drove that project. I would be curious to know Bielema's thoughts and how he would like to see the $100,000,000 spent. A year or two ago he we pretty vocal about getting the students...

    Gies Memorial Stadium

    The more I have thought about it, read others' ideas and looked at other stadiums/renderings I think I am leaning towards a SEZ renovation that mimics Arkansas. I believe @Fighter of the Nightman has used it as reference in some of his posts. I think it could tie in with the existing East and...

    Coaching Carousel (Football)

    Maybe I missed something, but PSU is a Nike school. Why would Adidas have anything to do with this?

    Coaching Carousel (Football)

    If Bill is out at UNC and they decide they want to start over and don't retain anyone from his staff that means Stephen Belichick would be available. Bret obviously has a relationship with Bill, but he and Stephen would have crossed paths within the Pats organization as well. If the Illinois...

    Pregame: Illinois vs Ohio State, Saturday, October 11th, 11:00am CT, FOX

    Can we go back to the ILL - INI chant being bounced back and forth between the East and West bleachers? It just doesn't work going from North (students) to South/rest of the stadium. They also need to make it happen at a set time/moment every game so everyone knows what's going on. First...

    at least they have an identity. What is Illinois' identity when it comes to gameday atmosphere and fan involvement? We have to establish something to take the next step in my opinion. Some programs have awesome entrances, tailgate experiences, light shows, drone shows, jump around, etc... We...

    Ohio State game (Oct. 11th): 11:00am CT, FOX

    Listening to the Barstool college football podcast "Unnecessary Roughness" and they talk about the upcoming Illinois OSU game. They don't come out and completely say Big Noon is coming but they hint at it. Hope this is true and it can become a standard. I also go back and watch the TV broadcast...

    Pregame: Illinois at Purdue, Saturday, October 4th, 11:00am CT, BTN

    Agreed! Its way to easy not to go over and cheer for the ILLINI!!! I have been a couple of times and have stood on the floor at Mackey each time. Wish we would open up and show off more buildings around campus on gameday.

    Pregame: Illinois vs Western Michigan, Saturday, September 13th, 6:00pm CT, FS1

    If I had to guess it will be a 12 ET (11 CT) game. This is likely going to be FOX's Big Noon Kickoff Game.
