If they build a Kirby underpass, then it would require the same process. To get around Kirby, I would stick with blocking the road on gamedays and/or building a bridge over the road, a la Iowa State, but on a smaller scale.

'Don't throw shade on the corn'. The underground Undergrad Library likely has a thick dam wall around the outside and boatload of French drains to keep water out. Lowering GMS's field ~10 ft could be done in a similar way but would be costly. The first few sideline rows would likely need to be...

I was on campus Monday afternoon, the old SEZ scoreboard is still up. I could not see any concrete work for the new scoreboard, I do not remember how it will be supported.

Where there's smoke, there's fire? I've wondered when NDSU might move to FBS, MWC makes sense. Maybe SDSU, Montana, Montana State, Sac State, and/or UC-Davis will come too. Will IL State move up eventually? I'd bet MAC for them.

I watched the Unity-Byron 3A Championship and he played his heart out, was sorry to see Unity lose. In either case, glad to see Considine become an Illini!

I heard rumors when I was in school that Hef wanted to donate a good amount of money but admin didn't like the optics. I won't be surprised if State Farm, John Deere, Case New Holland, CAT, or another major instate company became the non-Nike logo.

I drove through campus earlier this week and the construction crews have already removed the wording from the Kirby Street side of the scoreboard, we've all seen videos of the display screens being removed from the stadium side. I suspect that the scoreboard structure will be taken down pretty...

Don't forget about the Summer movies in the stadium, I'm hoping to take my kids this year

Did he just say the quiet part out loud? The SEC can no longer dominate because everyone can pay players, and payments are now above board.

I hate myself saying this, get it together tOSU! Nebraska and Michigan lost today, you need to win this one!

The bowl game before ran long, so the first ~30 minutes were on ESPN2 and then switched to ESPN. Sorry to hear that you only had part of the 1st quarter recorded.

When AL visits CU after graduating, he will never pay for dinner again

I had my son in Illini PJs all day and I wore my Illini 1/4 zip too. Glad that the team came thru for themselves, the fans, and my Illini loving family. I-L-L

If only I was still at my previous job, I could rub this win in the face of a Tennessee grad coworker
