It is nice being 2-0. Illinois is heading into a game this weekend against a tough Eastern Michigan team, but I have confidence with a lot of the roles we have right now. The quarterback position is stabilized. We have solid running back depth. I love our defensive line as well.
There have been some players who have shined this season that I expected to shine. Quarterback Brandon Peters is one of those players. He was a great player coming out of high school but never got a fair shake at Michigan. He has the talent around him at Illinois and has played well so far.
