Duck fan here! Looking forward to seeing Illinois take the field on Saturday against the Ducks. Heres to a good game and all players staying healthy throughout the game! See y'all soon! Go Ducks 🦆🦆🦆🦆
I live in Cleveland, TN, and have always been an Illini fan since I'm from Illinois. It's quite a distance, and haven't been to a football game '94. I'm going to break out, and just take off to a game in the near future. What a turn around because it's been a grind losing so much through the years. This is a great feeling having success with our coaches. GO BIG O&B !!🏈🏈🏈
GO AND TAKE THIS GAME!. Illinois hasn't had a team like this with a WR tandem, a QB who can make good decision, a productive Rb corp and a decent defense. Oregon is in the way of the National Playoffs! Oh yes, once through Oregon, its the playoffs assuming they stay focused and cleanup the trash games that remain. Its not about how far this program has come, when you have an opportunity such as this, you GRAB IT WITH BOTH HANDS AND FIGHT LIKE YER LIFE DEPENDS ON IT! Opportunities like this don't come often esp for Illinois.
I went to the Purdue/Oregon game. Purdue did run the ball well with virtually no passing attack. I can not figure out how they scored 49 on ILL? #GoDucks I hope for a good game. Great presser by BB, impressive.
Can us Duck fans PLEASE stop being so cocky? We haven't even played a full season of Big 10 football. It's a tough conference and anything can happen. You can't say "the conference now runs through Eugene" when we haven't won a single conference title. Let's pump the breaks and be humble
@@torrancefoster7317 Chief Illiniwek served as the spirit of the Illinois from 1926 through 2007. The wonderful NCAA catered to a very small group that considered the Chief hostile, abusive, and racial. So, as the same with many mascots during the 2000's, they were prohibited with any kind of display. There has been no mascot for the Illini since.
@@torrancefoster7317 when they took away the Chief, it hurt the athletic department, and the fans for sure. Attendance started to decline, and teams struggled. I'm glad duck season opens Saturday in Illinois !!!
There were few reasons.... the head dress and ceremonial wear wasn't from the illini tribe was a mix of multiple tribes. The person doing the ceremonial dance wasn't a native American. The dance was said to be offensive along with the song because it didn't come from illini tribe and didn't follow traditional native music. Only thing illinois had going for itself was the last living member of the illini tribe said it ok to do. Many protesters said the chief was like wearing black face and was determined to be racist.
lol we spent our money on the practice facility . we don't need a fancy desk to sit at and act smug and nonchalant about being number 1 lol j/k i actually really like your coach . here's to a close game!! ILL!!!
Everyone knows Oregon is loaded, we were a dumpster fire for a decade before Bielema got here and this is year 4 of the rebuild and the rewards are finally showing up. Y’all will probably win based on talent and home field, but we’re excited about the real possibility of a 10-2 or 9-3 season after years of 5-7 4-8 shit shows. And it helps with the future in regards to getting the horses needed to be in the top 4 or 5 teams in the B1G.

Ryan Walter’s knows our defense and players inside and out. That’s how.
I’m from South Carolina and I’m a huge duck fan
#ScoDucks 🦆
As a duck fan, this will be a good game between two good teams. Go ducks and coach lanning!!
Fun side note…Illinois’ 2023-25 duck season opens Oct 26th. So hopefully that’s more than just a coincidence lol.
2024*
They allow duck hunting in Illinois?!?! Why did Oregon join the B1G?? 😂🎉 ScoDucks!
Yes, although most duck hunting that’s worth a damn is on the opposite side of the state along the Mississippi River.
Hope you Illinois fans that come enjoy our beautiful town and the Autzen experience. I hope you do not enjoy the game however. LOL.
Big 10 officially runs through Eugene now get use to it ‼️

Didn't Joel Goodsen end up attending the University of Illinois after he graduated high school?? 🎉 SCODUCKS!!
Wait they don't let the players keep these special uniforms/helmets?
Sold them for $1,500 a pop. Gone within minutes.
Need some big commits
I still feel like Bert was the perfect fit for Arkansas. He just looks like a razorback.
I wanna know why Illinois changed their mascot
It's a long story.
