With week one on the horizon, the Illinois football team is gearing up to take on a tough University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) Roadrunners program.
The Illini didn’t just come through for my fandom, those also pulled out a big weekend for my wallet. I went 2-1 with my bets on the Orange and Blue with the only loss being on the over/under.
