Queen Latifah’s new CBS show where she finds the bad guys and kicks butt “I’m the one you call when you can’t call 911”... is the silver lining in a bad 2021... of course, if Latifah had been defending the Capitol we would have had no mob insurrection this week:

Illinois has proven remarkable. They are winning football against Michigan and Oregon and Nebraska with half or one-third the money, very few 4 star athletes at all… and upsetting SEC teams like Tennessee and South Carolina regularly in bowls now. It’s just crazy.
There isn't a more underrated coach in college football than Bret Bielema. Illinois has made a bowl for 3 straight seasons for the first time since 1988-1992. Bielema is also doing so with one of the lower NIL budgets in the Big 10.

This is a crazy fact
Nebraska is the ONLY FBS team to lead entering the fourth quarter in every game this season. The Huskers also lead the FBS in losses (3) after holding a lead at the start of the fourth quarter.

Illinois with a win at the buzzer… to go to 5-3. 3 straight wins after it looked like the season was over. They still need an upset in one of their final three games to make a bowl…
THE ILLINI WALK IT OFF WITH A GAME-WINNING FIELD GOAL 🙌 @IlliniFootball

He doesn’t have the NIL money or the starred players as most of his opponents. He just flat out out-coaches so many others.
Bielema won as an underdog for the 15th time at Illinois, the second-most underdog wins in the nation since he took over in 2021. Only Old Dominion has won more games as an underdog since 2021 (16). Illinois improved to 8-2 following bye weeks under Bielema.

Illini with a huge comeback upset against the Oregon Ducks. Illinois wins 21-10 on a beautiful Saturday in Champaign.

Veteran actor Tom Skerritt, known for his memorable roles in "Picket Fences," "Alien" and "Top Gun," has died at 93. His family announced he died of natural causes. @DavidMuir looks back at Skerritt's remarkable life and career. abcnews.link/uNMx7yt

Sad to hear about Tom Skerritt. They don’t make shows like Picket Fences anymore: a family drama about a Midwest town with quirks & ethical moral debates. But at its heart some fantastic performances by Tom Skerritt and Kathy Baker. (And a tv theme song that’s simply beautiful…
