[QUOTE="pruman91, post: 1938848, member: 3916"] My one and only Illini FB game was a home game when I was a sophomore in HS......So that would have been 1966 or 67......it was against the dreaded scUM and best I can remember was scUM was rated and the Illini weren't but the Illini had a lead until a scUM player returned a punt for TD and the gates opened up for them .............All this is still hazy as I was medded up even back then and our FB team was there and our seats were like 2 rows from the top of the stadium looking down on the end zone ......I was wide eyed and already a die hard Illini fan ........The rest of the FB team was up there to just have fun , but I lived and died on every play..... I hadn't thought about this much over the years and so the clouds have covered a lot of that day , but I still remember how cold it was .................North Pole cold..............................It really really was..............................
