Happy Sunday, Illinois Land!
On the eve of the official beginning of men’s basketball, HBC Bret Bielema and his football team decided to steal my attention for at least one more day.
It’s no secret that I have not been — shall we say — “impressed” with the Illini this fall on the gridiron. It has been quite the opposite, in fact.
For about 95% of the season, the offense has looked shallow, inept and easy to cover.
