NCAA: It's time to toot the Illini horn again!

I am thrilled with the success of the Illini this year! They are on their way to the longest winning streak in school history. A win over Ohio State last night brought them to 15-0. Illinois is one of only four teams in the country to boast a perfect record, and with 15 victories has the most wins in the nation.

Here is a list of the remaining undefeated teams in Div. I.Illinois 15-0 (next; Sat. at Purdue)Kansas 10-0 (next; Sun. at Kentucky)Duke 10-0 (next; Sat. vs. Temple)Boston College 12-0 (next; Sat. vs. Providence). These will be great games!

The Illini went 17-0 in 88-89, a school record. Their next 6 opponents are:
12/30 Northwestern State (WIN)(13-0)
12/31 Cincinnati (WIN) (14-0)
1/5 Ohio State (WIN 15-0)
1/8 Purdue (WIN 16-0)
1/12 Penn State
1/15 Northwestern (hopefully the record breaker!)
