Have heard some comments to the effect the Illini easily could be 6-6. That may be true, but in the close games the Illini won, they made clutch plays to win as opposed to the other teams screwing up (looking at you Bears).

I’d argue Illinois should be 11-1. Those people are nonsense - the reality is they are 9-3. Sports is simple - you win or lose.

We've consistently won the 4th quarter in so many of the close games (except Purdue). Kansas, Nebraska, MSU, Rutgers, today.

We don't have the talent on defense to be completely shutting teams down. I'm really optimistic on what we can do with all the returners next year, especially on the front 7
