There was also a lot made about changes to the offense and newcomers like QB Cade McNamara and TE Erick All from Michigan. The Hawkeyes will never score a single point on offense: A lot was made of the contract stipulation for offensive coordinator Brian Ferentz and the 25 points per game the Hawkeyes need to score this year. He looked just as good with the Hoosiers this spring. The defensive lineman was a terror with the Broncos last year, finishing with seven sacks, 13.5 TFL and 11 QB hurries. Tommy Devito was an excellent one-year option at QB last season, but Ole Miss transfer Luke Altmyer looked good this spring, and the Illini passing attack looks like it should be more dangerous in 2023.Īndre Carter will be the Hoosiers' first Day 1 draft pick in 30 years: Indiana's defense wasn't nearly disruptive enough last season, and coach Tom Allen addressed it by hitting the transfer portal to snag Carter from Western Michigan. If the Illini want to maintain that, however, they need to improve on offense. Luke Altmyer is the program's best QB since Jeff George: Illinois is coming off its best season in years, thanks mostly to one of the best defenses in the country. Let's take a look at the kind of overreactions that could be going on around the message boards of Big Ten country right now. 1 job miss throws during the 10 minutes of practice they were allowed to watch? Worst passing offense ever! Need to hit the portal and gather some NIL money to buy Caleb Williams from USC! Did the team's Twitter account post a video of your transfer WR making a sweet one-handed catch? Heisman! Did your local beat reporter see both quarterbacks fighting for the No. Sure, spring practice is helpful for coaches and players to figure things out, but the primary reason for its existence is to draw wild conclusions from it with little evidence. That's a lot of time for everybody - fans and media alike - to kill waiting for something tangible to talk about. Nobody in college football is taking a snap in anger for nearly four months.
