There are 11 teams that are 4-8 or worse. Lots of bad.

Our Chase Brown is looking very sharp tonight.
His legs are more of a blur than when he played for us.

 

[Knee brace]

Isaiah Williams returning punts for the bengals tonight

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Wow - As horrible a mistake I've ever seen by cowboys #27 on special teams... leads to bengals TD.

Chase Brown looking really good.

Chase exudes joy, doesn't he?

By the way, he's tenth among running backs in scoring right now.

Approaching "most fantasy-relevant Illini ever" territory.

Terrible OL's and his total lack of pass game value always hampered Mendenhall in that department. But was he getting taken near the top of drafts in 2011? I honestly don't remember. There were more bell cow backs back then.

This is Brandon Lloyd erasure. I had on my team back in 2010 when he put up over 1400 yards and 11 TDs. It might have been one year but man was it a good one.

I'm not a fantasy guy, but how was Pierre Thomas?

Relevant for a few seasons, but always hampered by being the "passing down" back with a coach that was sporadic with his usage of that skillset.

 

[IlliniFaninHoosierLand]

Neil Rackers was pretty good for fantasy football, inasmuch as kickers usually are anyway.

 

[BretMyBeachHouse]

Chase with a great day. 97 yards on the ground. 3 catches for 16. 1 rushing TD. One receiving td.
