In this episode we talk about what comes to mind when we think Illinois football, memories from our games against the Illini, thoughts about their stadium and locker room and what Bielema has done so far in Champaign. We get a brief aural cameo from Ryan Ward and ponder why he hasn't been on the show yet. Then we discuss in further detail the firing of Paul Chryst, the precedent this sets for other coaches and athletic departments across the country, which job is better? Nebraska vs Wisconsin, and who we think has the best chance in the West. We give our short opinions on how Iowa wins the game this weekend, and make our weekly picks in the Ward's Winners segment.
