Internet sports betting on Illinois will have a different look on Saturday in their offshore sports betting matchup against Michigan State. Internet sports betting fans will see Eddie McGee at quarterback for the Illini as senior Juice Williams has been benched after a 1-3 start to the offshore sports betting season. Internet sports betting expectations were high for the Illini this year as they had a talented and veteran team that seemed primed for a Big Ten title challenge. Many of Illinois’ players were on the 2007 offshore sports betting squad that went to the Rose Bowl.
Williams was the starting quarterback of that 2007 internet sports betting surprise and has been the starter since arriving as a freshman. He has gone 51-89 this year for 519 yards with an internet sports betting mark of just 1 touchdown pass against 4 interceptions. McGee has seen limited internet sports betting action this year as he has gone 19-30 for 211 yards with 1 touchdown and 2 interceptions. Zook agonized over his decision in preparation for this weekend’s internet sports betting matchup in a must win home game. “It was as tough of a decision as I’ve had coaching,” said Zook.
The Illini have been in a steep internet sports betting decline since their run for the roses. The had a 5-7 straight up and 4-7 against the spread offshore sports betting record last year. Zook is known in internet sports betting circles as a strong recruiter but questionable coach. Williams would seem to be emblematic of that internet sports betting reputation as he has not developed under the Zook staff. Zook said that the Illini have responded positively to the change.
“They’ve been positive,” said the coach. “The biggest thing is that both of our quarterbacks are very well liked. Both of them are leaders and maybe its helped bring ups closer together.” Illinois is a 3.5 point sports betting dog for their homecoming showdown against State. Their season is on the line. “We need to get back on track, its homecoming for us,” said Zook. “This game is very, very important to both programs.”
