    Illinois-Notre Dame series 2027-2028

    I’m in if we have $10M more of NIL market-inflation adjusted cash infused into our roster by that time. If not, I see it as a great way for us to pack Memorial Stadium with Notre Dame fans and lose more recruiting battles to them. I like and trust JW, but this is aggressive. I’ll be over the...

    Illinois 20, Maryland 17 Postgame

    Wow. I’ll happily eat my pregame comments. Incredible coaching and the defense actually looked good. Oregon has some serious issues.

    I think we score way more than 10 pts, but I think they score close to what you’re suggesting. 55-28

    Umm. Can we just have our best two athletes spy Sheppard at this point? They can’t beat us outside of him. How do we not cover him in the red zone?
