What about this jersey and uniform as a throw back?

Yes it could. The areas to the sides of the NEZ could also be family areas unless those are for standing room areas for the students.

Not to nit pick but I was hoping the ‘I’ would have been bigger

Bugs me too! Can’t you just once say “University of Illinois”? He’s done it every time.

I still think the NEZ should be a family section and move the students to the SEZ while keeping the band in The lower part of the NEZ. You could have the band and the students doing the ILL…..INI cheer from north to south. You would have to add more seats to the SEZ though. This to me is the...

What do you guys think of this font instead of the Nike used one? It is from Robert’s Illiniboard and a 1988 program. It seems to be Chief related. Even without the Chief can we not give shuttle hints of our past?

I love it too. But if they say no to more seats why not what USC has done?

How many one run games have the Cubs lost this year? And of those 1 run loses how many has the bullpen lost? I know it’s been rough because of all the injuries but come on!

I think our cheerleaders need to do signs of ILL and INI and get that chant going right before our players take the field. What an awesome crowd. What is it going to take to get ours to that level?

Watching the USC/Fresno State game and they have an area at one of the endzones where they have standing room with tables and umbrellas. Could this be an option for the SEZ? We wouldn’t have to add seats but it could be used as a beer tent area near the field. I bet people would spend money...

I’ve had the same opinions about our crowd noise for years. We have to be the least rowdy football fans in the country. I remember going to an Ohio State game in the late 90s early 2000 when Kitner was the quarterback and the crowd was lame. We were losing but scored some late game touchdowns...

What’s the uniform combo for Thursdays game?

About time! I’ve never seen a webcam saying it is showing construction of something and then pointing to another entity like SFC. Don’t know why they did this.

Do we know what are uniform and helmet combo is yet for the UAB game? The recent pic has the slant ILLINOIS helmet. Is that foreshadowing?

I would do the same! With the NCAA no longer any kind of enforcing body why don’t we bring back the Chief? At least bring back the Chief logo. Stick it right at the 50 yard line. Can you imagine the roar of the crowd if the Chief did his performance at halftime?
