Illini did not make top 25 this week, in AP or Coaches.

Well, my bad. The Illini are left out in the cold for one more week, and given that we only play a fairly lowly Georgia team before the next rankings come out, I don't see them getting traction enough to make it in next week either. I thought this week offered the best opportunity for the Illini to get back in, given their recent games against ranked opponents, but the otherwise pretty watery schedule is not helping, nor are the two losses in Vegas, (to Bradley. little brother of all little brothers.) Ah well, we can always root for lots of losses in the 20-25 area, as we are I believe now the non technical 28th or so in voting.
