Through two games this season, the Illinois football team finds themselves with a .500 record.
A 1-1 start wasn’t ideal, but it also isn’t the worst-case scenario. A 1-0 start to the Big Ten season is a plus, but a tough defeat to UTSA has Illini Nation a bit confused on how to view the Orange and Blue.
