Scandal, blue collar and Weber the plane de-icer

Illinois looks to go undefeated in the nonconference portion of their schedule tonight when they take on the University of Tennessee-Martin. (For those who have never heard of Tennessee-Martin, here is their webpage.)

A 14-0 record going into Big Ten play would be, without question, exceeding expectations.

White collar vs. Blue collar
Tupper has a nice preview of tonight's game here, which talks about the identity of this year's team compared to last year's.

Rebounding king
Trib's Neil Milbert has nice story on Augie here as he looks to become the Illini's all-time leading rebounder tonight.

Scandal...In Champaign?????
Peoria Journal-Star has a story on the fake ticket situation. Brett Dawson blogged about it last night. You know you're hot and popular when people are selling fake tickets.

Bruce Weber: Plane De-icer???
Kirk Wessler (PJS sports columnist) gives nice props to Weber today (you'll have to scroll a little to get to it).

ESPN
New Power 16 up. Illinois at No. 5...solid 2 seed. HOWEVER, check out what they say about Indiana. (Hint: Big Ten getting as much love this year as it got scolding last year.)

Also, Dee Brown. Need we say more?
