Illinois football has struggled defensively, and there are three key factors have led to this disastrous defense.
Undoubtedly, one of the most disappointing aspects of this year's Illinois football team has been the defense.
Although many want to place sole blame on defensive coordinator Aaron Henry, other actors are responsible for the poor Illini defense this season as well.
The lead issue of this defense has been Henry. The inability to dial up any sort of pressure, especially for such a talented player in Gabe Jacas, has been disheartening.
