Zook was mailing out offers to half the country again.

They didn't score enough points to win enough games required to make them bowl eligible.

Channeling my inner jimotis4heisman here. :tongue2:

Their defense was giving up about 25 points per game, and Juice threw 15 picks. Add other turnovers and you see why they're home. They moved the ball very well, just turned it over too much.

Illinois mailed it in this season. That's what happens when you consistently recruit a bunch of punks, cadillacs, knuckleheads, and mental midgets. When things go well, they taunt and gloat ... and when things go badly, they whine and pout ... and quit. Class program in Champaign ... have a nice Christmas, Illini.

Maybe Ntre Ame will hire him....

Does this mean the end of their reality show on BTN?

But.....

What about all the pre-season machismo on the Zooker thread? I thought last season was all they needed to now be the team to beat in the B10..... I thought they were supposed to dominate now.....

they still have a shot at the Rose Bowl.

Here's a song dedicated by the Buckeyes to the "Fighting" Illini:

While breaking up fights between his current players.

They'll be back to planting flags on Indiana's logo after winning their 2nd game to go 2-6 in the conference any time now.

I kinda wish "ThaKid" and IlliniDarrin" were still around.
