A great interview requires a fantastic guest (Mike DeCourcy) and an excellent interviewer (IlliniGuy Larry Smith).

DeCourcy and Smith - don't miss it.

One of the best college basketball analysts brought to you by the IlliniGuys.

IlliniGuys Mike and Brad talk to Kedric Prince (IlliniGuys Director of Recruiting) and Matt Stevens (IlliniGuys Staff Writer and Football Beat Reporter).

We discuss the Choice - when Coach Bielema chooses to punt on 4th & 2 on the Purdue 34 late in the game - instead of going for it or kicking a field goal.

We talk about all angles of the game as we process a loss that drops the Illini to 1-4. With a few breaks, the Illini could be 4-1, or 0-5.

It's a crazy year 1 for the Bret Bielema era of Illini coaching.

IlliniGuy Mike leads a discussion on the challenges in front of the Illini football offense. He is joined by Kedric Prince (IlliniGuys Director of Recruiting), Matt Stevens (IlliniGuys Staff Writer and Beat Report for Illinois Football) and Brandon Wildman (host of the I on the Lines - which releases every Thursday here on IlliniGuys.com).

We have some challenging conversations about diagnosing what is wrong with the Illinois offense, what can be done to fix and how one would go about changing the results on the field.
