Description

Illinois survives a slow start at Duke, winning 45-19, but can they fix their offensive line woes? The Illini defense bounced back after a shaky week one, holding Duke in check despite minimal pass rush. Quarterback Luke Altmyer was under constant pressure, sacked four times as the offensive line struggled. The run game also sputtered early, but a second-half surge led by Ca’Lil Valentine salvaged the ground attack. Is this a championship team, or will these issues derail their season?
