When are season tickets usually available in the app? I can't remember but I'm thinking like 2 weeks before week 1? I'm donating a couple of my season tickets to a benefit. Trying to make the process as clear as possible for the buyer.

My wife and I are going to plan a trip to California around the @UCLA game. Never been to the Rose Bowl and going to start following our teams on the road more. My question is how should we buy tickets? We’d of course like to sit where other Illini fans will be. Do we buy from UCLA but if so how do we know where to sit? Can I buy from Illinois? Should we wait and buy on secondary market?

Thanks for any advice.

Ifund and season ticket holders have until 7/31 to request tickets for away games if you know someone that can buy for you. The UCLA game is $103 which is most expensive of the away games.

Seat Geek has some tickets for UCLA for less than that. Some even in the lower bowl on the Illini bench side.

Seeing an away game in LA in mid-November sounds a lot better than Madison, West Lafayette, East Lansing, Happy Valley, Minneapolis...

Looks to me like we're going to be very happy with the new QB.

You don’t win every game you’re favored in and you don’t lose every game you’re the dog in, but if that did happen, we’d go 8-4.

This is an asinine list. I get that these are designed to stoke engagement.

Jack Ham should be #2 on this list. He was a consensus AA in college, multiple time all-pro in NFL, HOFer, Super Bowl Winner.
Lavonte David might be top-5. He played at Nebraska during some terrible years but he was incredible. Future HOFer too.
There are a lot of interesting Penn State, Illinois, Ohio State, and Wisconsin linebackers that could also make this list. I'd especially say it's a crime that Penn State has no representation on this list.


Good luck figuring out what to do with guys like Hardy, TJ Watt, etc. that were excellent modern, edge linebackers. Also, are you only considering players who played in the official Big Ten? Or players who played for current B1G members? Because the latter would add Junior Seau, Ken Norton Jr., and a bunch of interesting USC players.

10% greater odds of beating Oregon (at home) than Ohio State (on the road).
