Illini Inquirer's Jeremy Werner chats with All-American linebacker J Leman about Illinois football's 33-23 loss at Iowa. Leman starts off chatting about the defense keeping the Illini competitive once again and who should earn All-Big Ten honors from that group, but he also highlights one underrated absence at Iowa City. Then Leman breaks down the offense's struggles and discusses what criticism is fair of offensive coordinator Tony Petersen and how the Illini fill some offseason holes through the transfer portal. The guys end the podcast previewing the regular-season finale against Northwestern.
