I think someone already posted a scouting report for Illinois but I couldn't find it.

Mods please move this if it does exist.

Prediction

I think it’s going to be closer that 24 points, but I don’t think the Illini will be able to pull this one off. Early in a season where Smith is still relying on underclassmen to make plays, the Bulls will return enough firepower to cause problems on defense and score against an Illini linebacking corps that is very much in question heading into the season.

I wouldn’t be totally shocked if Illinois held the lead in the second quarter, but this one will go Charlie Strong’s way again.

Final: USF 31, Illinois 21
