Daniels' Big Ten wrap: Is this game a must-win?

BILL OF RIGHTS

Each week, we’ll gauge whether Bill Cubit can hold onto the Illinois job past the 2015 season: The interim leader didn’t get the victory he was looking for against Wisconsin — one that could have gone a long way toward making him the Illini’s 2016 coach. Cubit’s team starts a stretch of four non-C-U games in the final five with a bowl bid and a job for Cubit on the line.
