Mike Carpenter is joined by Trevor Vallese for a wide-ranging conversation on Illinois football. They discuss their confidence level in each position group, including some obvious strengths (line play) and unknowns (QB, DBs). Also, they look at the 12-game schedule and try to come up with a reasonable expectation for this Illini team. Finally, Trevor proposes a tantalizing best-case scenario, one in which Bret Bielema has often excelled.
