they only need 2 more wins to be bowl eligable. They are turning their program around. THey won't go to a bcs bowl because Ohio State will win the Big 10.

A couple more wins and they will be Bowl eligble. Zook has done a good job digging the program out of the hole the incompetent Ron Turner put them in. They are definitely headed in the right direction. Go Illini!!!!

Big Trn is not the powerhouse conference it once was. A win this weekend would vault them into the position of a real good bowl game.

Define good. I think if they beat Wisconsin this week they can make say the Citrus bowl or Outback bowl. Those are two descent bowl games. Zook is doing a pretty good job. He is a great recruiter, but just an o.k. coach.

Given how weak the Big Ten is, Illinois can do a lot of damage. I don't see them getting as high as the Outback Bowl, but the Alamo is definitely in their sights.

yes, but not the Rose bowl I think Purdue is going to win the conference and win it to be honest. I think they may finish higher up there and get in the GMAC bowl, or maybea higher bowl even.
