Illini ranked in both AP and Coaches Polls



Maybe it was Brandon Paul's surprising performance, or maybe people just like our jerseys, but either way, the Illini did not have to wait too long to once again be ranked in both Polls, along with 5 other Big Ten teams. Yes, that means that more than half of the league is in the TOP 25, good times are here again.

Maybe it was the sheer awesome . . .

of beating in-state rival . . . SIU-Edwardsville. Yeah, that’s it.

One day, David Backes and Albert Pujols will combine forces to become the most awesome piece of violent force known to man.
