Hard to know what would have happened to the #Illini on Thursday if Ty Robinson hadn't come down with Katin Houser's last-second bomb to end the first half.

Great to be back at Memorial Stadium for tonight's #Illini game against UAB. The new scoreboard is barely noticeable. Should be an easy Illinois win. Next week's game against Duke is a much bigger challenge. https://t.co/tptMk6NBSB 1.1K views · 20 likes · 1 reposts · 0 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

Going into Bret Bielema's sixth year as #Illini.coach, the program is on its most solid footing in more than three decades. The UAB game is a step toward continuing progress.

It will be interesting to see how the #Illini defense works with new coordinator Bobby Hauck. He had a long, successful run as head coach at FCS school Montana.

For #Illini offense to operate at a high level, receiver Hudson Clement needs to stay busy. The West Virginia transfer is enjoying his second college home.
