In what I can only call a terrible move in regards to scheduling, Illinois has opted to play a home conference game in Chicago at the United Center. In the past, the Illini have opted for a non-conference game for the Chicago fans, although those were sparsely attended.
Now, however, Illinois has moved a game away from Champaign that brings a ranked foe to Chicago. Turns out, fans didn’t get the message about the game.
Tickets left available for the Illinois/Ohio State game at the United Center next week. Dark blue means no butts in seats: pic.
