So Illinois is 5-5 and in position to make its first bowl game since reaching the Rose Bowl in 2007. They face Northwestern at Wrigley Field in Chicago on Saturday and then they close out the regular season against Fresno State. All they need is a win in either game to be bowl eligible. The fans can feel it … the media can sense it … but just don’t bring it up with head coach Ron Zook:
Who told Ron Zook to put the balm on? I didn’t tell Zook to put the balm on. Why did he put the balm on? He needs a BCS doctor to tell him to put the balm on!
