But if you're able to beat Houston, set up a game where you would be the favorite over Nebraska or Iowa.
for the chance to get to the Final Four.
I think that would solidify Brad Underwood as one of the two best coaches to ever be at Illinois because Bill Self was only here three years.
But that would solidify him as one of the nation's elite coaches.
I think he's already been kind of in that conversation beginning of the Final Four.
He gets there.
There's no doubt he's one of those guys.
But they tried to do it last year with the defensive line.
I mean, they made a couple of big signings.
They spent a lot of money on Odengbo and on Grady Jarrett, and they just didn't get any payoff for it.
I mean, that's the reality of it.
I think that if they want to remain as good a team as they are, this is going to be an awful thing to say, but I think when you watch Caleb Williams and his ability to spin out and take off and to do things on the run, that's easier done with pressure coming from over left tackle than it is
when a guy is coming right up the middle of the field.
And I worry about that for that reason.
And I think that I don't want him on the run and trying to get away and under pressure and all that.
But I think that as he improves as a player and maybe converts a lot more of these β
open throws that that become higher percentage throws as he gets more used to what he's doing and I honestly believe that will happen I think that the Bears offense is going to get better but if you got holes on the offensive line it's not going to and I think that there is a scenario
where they could buy time with the left tackle position if they brought back Braxton Jones and figured out a way to use him and Theo Benedict together as a force somehow and improving somehow until you get Braxton
the starter back, which Dustin scares me at the idea, well, everything will be good in December because what if he has a setback or what if he's not in condition or how long does it take him to come back from that injury?
I think these are all question marks.
