Illinois Can Win The Big Ten West

-

 


    The Big Ten has been one of the most interesting conferences in all of college football this season. There seems to be 2 categories, the Big Dawgs and Trash Teams in the Midwest. The Big Dawgs consist of Michigan, Ohio State, and Penn State which seems to be the teams competing for the Big Ten title every year. One of these schools have won the Big Ten title dating all the way back to 2016. The other category is the Trash Teams in the Midwest which includes the 11 other Big Ten team. The West just seems to knock off each other by beating each other on the road each week. Wisconsin were the preseason favorites and no longer have a coach. Minnesota seemed to run the west and now lost to Purdue AT HOME DURING HOMECOMING. Looking around the west it is anyones for the taking. Illinois makes the most sense to win the west. 
    
    Bret Bielema has the boys ready for any challenge and playing the best football Illinois has played in YEARS. Chase Brown is playing like Heisman finalist and guiding Illinois in the right direction. Brown is also leading the country and Big Ten in rushing yards. The crossover games for Illinois include Indiana, Michigan State, and Michigan. Illinois already lost to Indiana on the road. But Illinois plays Michigan State who is down this year at home but also have to travel to the big house. If Illinois wins 1 of the 2 games against the Michigan schools and win 3 or 4 games in the West, Illinois will be playing in Indianapolis. 
    

    Imagine a world where Illinois plays in a Big Ten championship under Bret Bielema in his 2nd year. College football fans around the country would have laughed at you and Illinois fans wouldn't have believed it either.  Lets just say it feels like 2007 again in Champaign, don't be surprised if Illinois ripped off a run here. The Illini end up in Indianapolis and Brown ends up in New York.

The Lakers Need A New Point Guard

-

       The Lakers are 0-2 and have one of the best players of all time on their roster. When healthy Anthony Davis is a top 10 player in the NBA, but man does he love wearing a suit on the bench. Or as Charles Barkley would say Anthony "Street Clothes" Davis. This team does not look together and does not look like they practice shooting in practice. I think its time to call the 6'0 point guard out of North Central College to come help the purple and yellow to bring back the Showtime Lakers.      The Lakers need a point guard, BADLY.  Russell Westbrook, Patrick Beverley and Kendrick Nunn shot 1-25 from the field COMBINED. Westbrook is constantly being left open and he thinks it's a bad rotation so he shoots. But defenses leave him open on purpose but he still shoots. I wish I had that much confidence in life as Westbrook open in the corner. Westbrook shot 0-11 from the field, I know I could make at least one. I like to think I'm more...

Bears Big Decision: Justin Fields or Caleb Williams?

-

       The Bears have one of the most interesting off season decisions to make with either Justin Fields or Caleb Williams. If you were to ask any Bears fan, the fan base is split 50/50 and understandably so. Justin Fields has looked like a different quarterback since coming back from injury and also has 3 games left to prove. The Bears are also still in the playoff picture as well to make a run but seems very unlikely at this point. Lets get into the argument for both sides then I will get into my opinion. Justin Fields : I think the flash has been there the last couple of games and we saw the same thing from Fields to end the year. Also adding DJ Moore was huge for Fields as he finally got a WR1. The Bears have 2 top 5 picks and could focus on building around Fields through the draft. The Bears could do a couple things with the first pick and the most popular would be trading down. With trading down, it would be 2-3 first round picks and also players. The Bears cle...

Chargers Wide Receivers Situation

-

    The Los Angeles Chargers went 5-12 last season and fired their head coach mid way through the season. The Brandon Staley era in Los Angeles did not go as planned for the Chargers front office, players, and fans that thought Staley was going to take the league by storm. The era is remembered by the Chargers blowing a 27-0 playoff lead to the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2022. It was time to move on but they are still in a good situation.  The Chargers have their QB of the future with Justin Herbert who is 25 years old and just signed a 5 year extension, he is locked up to be the Chargers signal caller for many more years to come. But the wide receiver situation could be alarming from the outside looking in. The Chargers are in cap space hell moving into the offseason. The Chargers have to pay Khalil Mack, Joey Bosa, Keenan Allen, and Mike Williams all set to have a cap hit of 30 million plus. Keenan Allen and Mike Williams combined are set to have a cap hit of 66 million ne...
