After Illinois lost to Minnesota 41-14 on Saturday, head coach Lovie Smith discussed the game and what the Illini are doing this week to prepare for Rutgers.
Here’s what he had to say:
On loss to Minnesota
- They have evaluated the video and spent a lot of time watching it.
- Changes have to be made and they are working to make those necessary corrections.
On players out due to contact tracing
- The players who were out because of contact tracing protocol will be back on Wednesday this week.
