I am still in a deep, deep depression but Illinois is preseason #6 on KenPom 👀

This couldn’t possibly backfire….could it?

If the Cubs won, you wouldn’t even see them acknowledge the Brewers. First playoff series win in 7 years and all they can think about is dunking on the Cubs We don’t call em little brother for no reason

Illinois’ only losses are to #1 and #3 and they drop them out of the Top 25 entirely Disgusting

Illinois basketball Ranked 6th on KenPom 8th on Evan Miya 7th on Torvik And in the AP Poll, we’re ranked *checks notes*…17th???!? I like it. A little bulletin board material to start the season. Brad will have these guys fired up and ready to go prove it🔥

15 of the AP Top 25 don’t have a win over a currently ranked team — 5 of them are SEC teams Meanwhile, Illinois & Michigan have both beaten a ranked team, and have only lost to other ranked teams (Mich to 14 & 20, ILL to 1 & 3) Don’t ever tell me the polls aren’t SEC-biased lol

I mean you have to be shitting me This might actually be the softest roughing the passer ever called

BALL DONT F*CKIN LIE JAYDEN

“Facemask” on 4th down gifts the Commanders a 1st down and eventual TD Infuriating. Every single call has gone the Commanders way thus far

Did they just call a penalty on the Commanders?? Can they do that???

How do you take a Bears TD away on THAT call. When you can’t decipher the penalty even in replay — or a still shot — it’s a no call.

Maybe the biggest “ball don’t lie” game I’ve ever seen And btw Caleb has ALWAYS been the better QB. 2 game winning drives that should’ve resulted in 2 wins. Glad to have 18 on my team. BEAR DOWN🐻⬇️

The Cubs get eliminated by the Brewers and the Illini lose to OSU Shoutout to Caleb and the boys for saving me from an all-time shitty sports weekend 🫡

2024: - Jayden, up 12-7 with 6 mins left, can’t convert, Commanders punt - Caleb leads what should’ve been winning TD drive 2025: - Jayden, up 2 with 3 mins left, fumbles - Caleb leads winning FG drive A once-in-a-lifetime lucky play doesn’t change anything Caleb > Jayden

Caleb Williams in the 4th quarter this season: 21 for 32 (65.6%) 277 passing yards 2 touchdowns 0 interceptions 113.7 passer rating Clutch.

Our guy Ayo earning some high praise 👀 #Illini x #NBA 🔶🔷

Illinois plays every team circled below for a total of 9 regular season games against ranked opponents (and 1 scrimmage vs Florida) The Illini will certainly be battle-tested, and hopefully don’t become a breeding ground for various diseases while participating in said battles😂

If you’re a Brewers fan and attended either of these first 2 games, you should be ASHAMED Pathetic atmosphere. I’ve heard Wrigley louder for a Wednesday 1:20 game in April

Guys. Please stop posting this photo when the Brewers lose. Brewers fans are getting very offended. This is NOT cool.
