I was present to watch Isiah William muck it up for the Illini at Iowa for a 10-6 loss.Not sure about being the favorite buthhe last time we beat Iowa we had a different Isiah Williams on the team.
They did give up 172 yards rushing and 27 points at there place today. Their defense is solid but their offense is awful. I like our chances and I hate the hawkeyes!I think and know we can win this game. This is a good to great and maybe an all time type Iowa defense. They are really good on that side of the ball. I’m going 13-10 for the beloved. I’ll be there and I can’t wait.
You are right but we need to wear them down and spread them out.I think and know we can win this game. This is a good to great and maybe an all time type Iowa defense. They are really good on that side of the ball. I’m going 13-10 for the beloved. I’ll be there and I can’t wait.
75$ a ticket is ridiculous when your trying to get people to attend. I want to take my family it’s $300 bucks plus parking for End zone seating. Needless to say the wife said no. (She’s an Iowa fan)DIA has to do something with ticket prices to get butts in seats. Just looked at KU’s ticket prices for their next game. Plenty of sections to get tickets between $40-50. Our cheapest ticket for Iowa is $75. No reason for that price any season until we are consistently good, let alone to be set before this season.
A no today doesn’t equal a no tomorrow or the next. Keep working it, we need all the bodies in the stadium.75$ a ticket is ridiculous when your trying to get people to attend.

Wearing Orange will be difficult. It’s going to be cold.

Wont be able see with face covered by aluminum foil though
It‘s totally absurd. The pricing is so out of touch with reality that it’s borderline offensive for BB or anyone representing the athletics department to act like the team has earned better fan support. $75 is fine for the best seats, but at least 1/3 of the seats should be $25 or less.75$ a ticket is ridiculous when your trying to get people to attend.

Kudos to you if you got it like that and can drop $3300 on a single game. Some people can't, plain and simple. And for some folks that $200 needs to go elsewhere, like housing, food, or transportation for the monthSorry but I have to laugh/scoff at this.
$1500 - two last minute round trip plane tickets from Charlotte
$ 160 - parking at Charlotte airport
$ 150 - two tickets to the game
$ 230 - 3-day car rental from O'Hare
$ 110 - gasoline
$ 500 - two nights at local C-U hotel
$ 200 - Illini gear
$ 450 - meals (for two) on Friday-Saturday-Sunday
-------
$3300 Cost for attending 1 game with spouse or child. One might think that the 800,000 living alumni are fighting to get the 30,000 remaining tickets.
Oh - and $3300 is totally worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
* The Illini play just 7 home football games per year.
* Partying and reminiscing with friends, relatives and fellow fans.
* The smell and feel of crisp, cool October air.
* The "campus buzz" of a once great football team being revived by an outstanding new coach and staff.
* The faith and hope that we may once again be playing on New Year's Day.
And if you're fortunate enough to live and work locally, just substitute $200 for the $3300, above...........
I was seated behind Illinois bench he was running up and down sideline after visit to the medical tent.Hopefully Bryant is OK. Bring on the hawkeyes
Let’s all make a commitment to showing up in person Saturday night and packing the stadium! This team and staff deserves a full stadium Saturday night!!!When’s the last time we had a game in prime time that actually meant something?
My wife also said no for our family of four. She’s also an Iowa grad…75$ a ticket is ridiculous when your trying to get people to attend. I want to take my family it’s $300 bucks plus parking for End zone seating. Needless to say the wife said no. (She’s an Iowa fan)
