WHAT ARE THOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE
Not many teams go heavy on the orange, and there's a reason—it's loud, garish and unseemly, like Gilbert Gottfried at an opera. This is also (roughly) the 70th incarnation of the Illini uniform in the last 15 years, because they switch these things up every time the team bottoms out, trying to "start some new tradition" or whatever. Bad teams do it all the time (hi, Indiana). It's like being on the deck of the Titanic and yelling at the captain, "This is all because of your stupid hat!"
The Illinois brand identity is now, evidently, just a Block I, which is perfect because there's definitely no other FBS school that uses that oh wait here's Idaho and here's Indiana and here's Iowa and here's Iowa State so great job Illinois, way to make it yours.
