In their first matchup in two years, the Fighting Illinois will face the defending national champion Michigan Wolverines. While clear underdogs, they have the luxury of simply going out and play their game
The Fighting Illini have their work cut out for them when they take on the defending national champion Michigan Wolverines Oct. 19.Knowing they are the decided underdogs, the Fighting Illini have to play their absolute best. The biggest hump they have to overcome is on offense.
The Wolverines looks entirely different from the top down. Former Illini offensive coordinator Sherrone Moore is the new coach in replacement of Jim Harbaugh. Junior Alex Orji will replace J.J. McCarthy as quarterback. Senior Donovan Edwards picks up where Blake Corum left off as running back. However, the Fighting Illini could have the upper hand if the offensive line can set the tone. The duo of junior OL Josh Kreutz and junior center Josh Kreutz need to hold it together so that Altmyer can have time to operate.
