This was not what Illinois fans were looking for in this game. But there were some bright spots to go along with some of the struggles we have seen.
Good
Caleb Reams
The catch that Caleb Reams made on the sideline for 29 yards was one of the top five catches I have seen from the Illini this season. Some people think I am overreacting, but the difficulty level of that catch was through the roof.
Reams have to completely torque his body around because the ball was thrown on his outside shoulder.
