I have been back and forth on who Illinois football should start at quarterback, but I have made my decision.

Isaiah Williams should be the permanent starter.

Two out of the first three drives of the game for Illinois against Iowa were sensational. The first drive resulted in a 24-yard touchdown reception by Daniel Baker. The third one was a 12-yard touchdown reception by Josh Imatorbhebhe.
