As England began to play the ball around against Iran, they felt something different. "Definitely a click," John Stones said of the 6-2 win. "Or a desire to put things right. We had come out of a bad period." They can now look through to the other side. England scored more goals against Iran than they did in the entire Nations League campaign. The reality, however, was that it was a step up from Gareth Southgate ’s general style rather than just the last eight months. "I guess people wouldn’t expect us to be like that having watched us for a couple of years and the style of football we play," the manager acknowledged. "Maybe we regressed to the norm."

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. – The Fighting Illini wrestling program is set to receive a best-in-class facility following today's announcement of the Illinois Wrestling Training Center by Illinois Director of Athletics Josh Whitman. In the coming months, DIA will present the project for formal approval by both institutional authorities and the University's Board of Trustees. "Wrestling is one of our most storied programs at the University of Illinois," Whitman said. "For generations, Fighting Illini Wrestling has competed at a high level, including a run of All-Americans that is virtually unmatched, with facilities that do not meet our standard of excellence. It has taken us years of evaluating, planning, and fundraising, but we are so pleased to deliver to our wrestling program a facility of this caliber. This facility, combined with Coach Mike Poeta's leadership, will propel our program to new heights." The $14 million Illinois Wrestling Training Center will be located on the south lawn of State Farm Center, directly across St. Mary's Road from the Illinois Conference Center. It will feature approximately 19,000 square feet of space, including a wrestling room with three mats, strength and conditioning and sports medicine facilities, team locker room, coaches' locker room and offices, and a multipurpose meeting room. Another $1.3 million in site work and improvements to State Farm Center parking will be included in this project. Groundbreaking is scheduled for spring 2024, with completion expected in late 2025.

Illinois might have turned the corner after big wins over Iowa and Indiana. Hopefully they can keep the momentum going this weekend vs. Wisconsin.

Will there be one? If so, who should the Illini play? Would you like a crack at Duke?

Don't forget to pick the Illini!

Northwestern clearly wants to "own Chicago" but we in Urbana don't want that to happen do we? Illinois's played a few games up at Soldier Field in the last decade including the Northwestern game in 2015. Maybe we should play a few more games up at Wrigley/Soldier Field to match Northwestern in the future. Northwestern Chicago's Big Ten team? No. WE ARE!

I know it means nothing but I can't remember Illinois being in any bracketology predictions in several years so I think it's noteworthy.
