We're up to #37. Iowa's #36, virtually tied with us. Should be a tight game Saturday evening.
May want to leave her in Montana.
I put that squarely on Mike Locksley. He was a one trick pony: option with Williams and Mendenhall. Iowa clearly focused on stopping that and Locksley kept calling it.
You can get tickets for $60 this afternoon. Cheaper than a home gameMaybe week @ MI? We may need to win out until then to make it happen. First glance seems like Georgia vs Kentucky, and Oklahoma vs Oklahoma State might be most likely.

My wife was a Michigan fan when I met her, I made it very clear that was NOT going to be allowed in our house lol. It might be the only argument I ever won in over 36 years of marriage. She goes to games and cheers with me as much as I do. Of course, living in Champaign all those year helped a bit.
Congrats on marriage yesterday. Glad to see you made it through and back on loyalty. If your on a honey moon, be back by 6:30 sat. evening. Gotta have priorities& set the foundation early in the marriage.
Man, I hear ya. I'm coming from socal. However, our flights paid for on points, staying with friends. Only other costs are golf, food and tailgate. GO ILLINI!
If Walters makes a HC gig that is good for Illinois. We are now a spot that gets you to the dream. Also we have our HC/DC in waiting in Kane. Have a real feeling he is BB's heir apparent considering BBs career probably ends here and should last ~8-10 years.
I still like the under.
I also like the under Illini 28-10
Our special teams has to be competent. That’s all. No F-ups.
I guess I don’t know how we compare to other teams pricing-wise, but I do know that $180 for a season ticket is pretty darn reasonable. And, as fans (not pointing at anyone) we can’t say, “Back up the truck for Bielema, Walters, and Lunney,” but not be willing to fork out $26 per game.
But you can't shell out $26 a game now. Season tickets are no more. We sold something like 23,000 season tickets. Meaning you are no relying on people to pony up $75/game to support this team. A tough sell with how expensive other things are. As others have pointed out, other programs with more success than we have had have cheaper tickets. I don't know the answer here.
This just makes me long for ticket stubs … which, sadly, no longer exist.
My bad. I guess our chance of hosting game day then is probably over…
I think that’s a fair point, and $75 might be a steal for other teams fans, but other teams fans aren’t in the market for Illini tickets.Counter point: one could argue $75 for a big ten football ticket is a bargain, especially for a key conference / divisional game:

I feel you. Am glad I saved a handful over the years. Something about a ticket stub evokes memories like nothing else.
