In this episode, we dive deep into the buzz around Coach Brad Underwood potentially bringing back the famed 'Booty Ball' offense for the upcoming season. But there's a twist—this time, Ben Humrichous steps into the spotlight, taking over the role previously held by Marcus Domask.

Join us as we analyze what this strategic move means for the Illini, how Humrichous's unique skills could redefine the 'Booty Ball' approach, and the potential impact on the team's performance.

We also talk about when we think Tomislav Ivisic might be making his debut in Champaign.

Also we go through the top 10 rated Illini in the new EA Sports College Football 25.
