LMAO. Yes, America will be fascinated by a QB they've never heard of playing against his old team that they don't care about.Pinstripe vs Illinois is a ratings winner for ESPN. Make it happen!!
Good point, by third tier bowl standards it will do well. But obviously these bowls don’t depend big ratings or they wouldn’t exist .LMAO. Yes, America will be fascinated by a QB they've never heard of playing against his old team that they don't care about.
Pinstripe Bowl usually draws VG ratings.Good point, by third tier bowl standards it will do well. But obviously these bowls don’t depend big ratings or they wouldn’t exist .
It will add some intrigue, definitely for Cuse and lllini, not sure how much the rest of country cares, but I believe it happens, Illini has to buy inPinstripe vs Illinois is a ratings winner for ESPN. Make it happen!!
Brown might not play, I think he's banged up and might sit out because of NFL hopesWe will get clobbered by Illinois. They will run it down our throat. We want no part of that matchup.
Sounds like our running back. But hopefully not in our caseBrown might not play, I think he's banged up and might sit out because of NFL hopes
Then giddy up! I like it.Brown might not play, I think he's banged up and might sit out because of NFL hopes
tis the seasonMy brain currently hurts
Anyone else’s?
because we are 7-5 this year vs 9-3 that yearIf my memory serves me didn't we have a very good turn out at a Florida Bowl in 2018 vs. WVU at the Camping World Bowl in Orlando, with 35K+ in Orange, and pretty good TV ratings. I don't know why we have to be pigeon holed into a Northeast Bowl with that positive attendance/ratings for a Florida Bowl.

With all due respect, Illinois would destroy us. It would not be close.The Illinois offense is rated in the 80's at 300 ypg and their run offense is ranked #49. Our Defense will be just fine.
It's the Illinois defense to be worried about. #2 scoring defense in the Nation and #3 overall vs our anemic Offense.
This would be like a 9-6 type game in the cold. Joy.
Illinois is a power run and short quick pass offense. They are very physical on offense and burn a lot of clock. Exactly the kind of team that gave us issues in our 5 game losing streak. I don’t like the matchup and perfect a different team. In the end we have to play whoever we get so it doesn’t really matter.The Illinois offense is rated in the 80's at 300 ypg and their run offense is ranked #49. Our Defense will be just fine.
