Welcome to “This Week in Illini Athletics,” a weekly review of the past week of Illini sports and a preview of the week to come.

Football (1-1 Overall, 0-1 Big Ten)

Last Week: Well that was rough... On Friday night, the Illini went into Bloomington and dropped a very winnable game with having multiple chances of putting the Hoosiers away. It was the perfect storm of some questionable calls and big mental mistakes by the Illini that allowed Indiana (or should I say Indinia) to steal this win right from under Illinois.

Final: Illinois 20 - Indiana 23

Full game recap here:

This Week: The Illini will be looking to bounce back against Virginia on Saturday afternoon in Champaign.
