Illinois on edge as Big Ten title chase tightens
The piece argues Illinois may not go undefeated in the final five Big Ten games, noting only eight teams have done so since 1906 and only Purdue in 1930 and Illinois in 1942 matching perfection. It cites Iowa’s must win path, defensive strengths of Judson and Ridley, and potential weaknesses against drives, plus coaching comments and possible road upsets.
