CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Have yourself a day, Isaiah.

In Saturday’s 23-17 not-so-pretty win over FAU, the junior receiver was a big bright spot.

Williams received for 120 of the 303 Illinois passing yards — tying a career high. The biggest being a 45-yard snag, coming on a third-and-13 with the Illini deep in their own territory.

“I just wanted that ball,” Williams said. “Whenever Luke gives me a chance, I want to go make a play for him no matter where the ball’s at.”

Isaiah Williams got for this one.
