The Illinois Fighting Illini have risen one spot in the latest "USA Today" Top-25 College Football Poll. The Illini climbed from 16th in the nation to #15 after Saturday's 41-20 win over Indiana to improve to a perfect 6-and-0 overall and 2-and-0 in Big Ten action.
Off to their best start since 1951, the Fighting Illini have all the makings of a serious contender in the Big Ten this year. Illinois hosts Ohio State this weekend.
