I would buy and wear this shirt.

Note my flair, this is a big deal.

Note my flair

I always forget that so many Illinois fans think we’re rivals…

It's really more of a basketball feeling, but it's still heresy to wear black and gold anything related to a revenue sport.

How do you feel about Bret having a Hawkeye tattoo?

Nervous about when Kirk retires.

I honestly miss the 80s Illini/Hawkeyes basketball hate. That was some tasty hate.

There was a bit of a revival during the Ayo-Garza years. It's cooled since then, as a consequence of absurd college bball roster turnover, about which I still have mixed feelings.

Technically Wikipedia says we are

With Beils there, there is a good chance that we struggle with them this year

Probably added by an Illini. 

If we had a fifth and sixth rival it would be PSU and Northwestern. If we had a seventh, Illinois can fight MSU, Purdue, etc. for it?
