About to head over to the stadium to get the party started!
Time to start a new chapter in Illinois football. Coach Underwood has the basketball program on the right path, and I think Coach Bielema is going to be the best football coach we have had in a long time. ILL!!!
It's in Mississippi, so it's as close as they could get to an SEC school.
Though it may be disappointing to not get Gameday, I get why they chose HBCUs. Sorry if you’re butt hurt about that, but HBCUs deserve attention and recognition.

My "long time" may differ from yours, but I love the sentiment! I haven't been consistently optimistic for more than a season or two since Mackovic. Here's wishing Coach B and his staff great success and longevity at First & Kirby.
Exactly. If they thought it was gonna be a game that would draw in eyeballs aside from people like us, they would have came to Champaign. Heck, two years ago they did the show at Disney World leading up to Miami/Florida in Orlando.
