Illinois will have the oldest team in the B10. I always run the stats and analytics and they return 94% of their rushing, 74% of their receiving, 4/5 OL starters, 6th year QB, FG kicker returns, 86% of their sacks, 81% of their TFL. All of those are very high % in regards to returning valuable players.
IL wasn't that good last year but for 1 they beat us in Lincoln and now have a better coaching staff. They have a good RB and will see a little slower pace from them. I think this is very much a tough game for it being week 0.
