It was a snowy Saturday, but that didn’t stop the Illinois football team from scooping up a victory.
Northwestern came down to Champaign and was sent home with a loss. This was a great win for the Illini, marking the eighth victory of the 2025 campaign.
A big element of Illinois’ struggles in drawing in big recruits in the past was winning. While we have had recruits take a look at the program, winning has always been a big roadblock for talent to land in Champaign.
That lack of winning has subsided, and there are some quality players who have already committed to play for the program.
