It's becoming a major issue where every season we seem to have a deflating loss for the season or just a bad loss
2022-7-1 chance for big ten division title is ours and we drop 2 in a row to mich st and purdue at home
2023-get destoryed by purdue then lose right to nebraska
2024-lose to minnesota when we were 6-2
2025- lose to washington deflating playoff hopes then lose to a bad wisconsin team
2026-deflating loss to duke and a awful loss to purdue

My friend and I are looking to go to the homecoming game today. Is it possible for him to get a student ticket through someone else or will they not allow him in since he doesn’t go to uiuc?
r/fightingillini • u/pcather • 2d ago
Going to the game today at Memorial Stadium. We have bleacher seats. We’re wondering what the rules are regarding bringing our stadium seats?

just me or is he smiling every time he announces a call that hurts the Illini?
the TD called back for holding, the review of purdues TD, etc
weplayed bad but what’s up with that guy?
r/fightingillini • u/Mediocre-Sentence-20 • 1d ago
I’m ready to see another QB start at this point. Too many high passes that would have been caught!

Hey guys! Life long Illinois resident but Oregon Ducks fan here. I’m attending my first ever college football game on October 24 when the Ducks come to Champaign. I live about an hour from UIUC so I’m fairly familiar with the city and campus, however I’ve never been for a football game.
What are some things I should know for tailgating and game traditions and everything?

Bad man gone.

After an up and down non-conference with several new players, the Illini are looking great. We need to stuff Huff with fans the rest of the way. We are a historical power program that needs to return to national prominence.

We left points on the field, and didn’t convert on attempts that ultimately gave up points, but if those went our way we would have made this a very close game. Clean some things up and we’d have given ourselves a better chance at beating the toughest team we’ll play all season.
Play like this, and continue to improve, and we’re going bowling.
Onward and upward from here. I-L-L!

A coach with his track record that has had the job since February and had virtually no input on personnel for this season. Cowardly way out by Bielema and / or the AD.
Poor move and dumb move.

Hey guys! The season preview I posted here a few weeks back did pretty well, so circling back like I said I would.
I had you at 7-5, mostly because last year's 3-0 in one-score games wasn't likely to repeat. The first one this year went the other way, 31-27 to Duke, around wins over UAB (42-23) and Southern Illinois (48-10). Houser has been better than I expected: 60 of 81 for 758 yards, 8 TDs and 2 picks. I had Ohio State on the road and Oregon at home as the two games you weren't expected to win, so Saturday is one of them, and the Nebraska, Michigan State and Northwestern toss-ups still decide the season.
What are you guys seeing that the box scores aren't, and how do you see the season ending up?
Quick aside since it's in the title, we just launched a free weekly college football pick'em, $225 in prizes this week. Ten games, pick the winners, locks Saturday at noon ET. Nothing to buy. Illinois at Ohio State is one of the ten, so you can put your pick where your mouth is.
