The Illinois Fighting Illini is switching things up this week and hopefully, the changes turn out for the best.

The depth chart changed pretty dramatically this week. The biggest change has to be at the running back position.

I am interested in seeing how Reggie Corbin continues to develop this season. He started against Nebraska and did pretty well.

Hopefully, everything goes well for the Illini this weekend and we move to 2-3 on the season.
