[QUOTE="Illinirog70, post: 1812920, member: 748645"] First game was a loss to Oregon state 12-10 in September 1965. Best game was beating #6 Purdue with Bob Griese 21-0 in a wind storm later that year. Can we have a repeat on Saturday? Didn't miss a home game in my 4 1/2 years. We were 1-9 in 1968 and I figured that I needed to come back for one more semester to avoid Viet Nam and finish my degree. Surely we couldn't be as bad as 1-9! I was right...we were 0-10 in '69. Thanks Jim Valek! Last game I went to was when my nephew was at the U of Ill. and we beat Michigan State 15-14 on 5 field goals. Not sure of the year.... [/QUOTE]
