Illinois Wins Citrus Bowl 21-17 Over South Carolina Amid Coaches' Tension
Dec 31, 2024, 11:38 PM
Illinois secured a 21-17 victory over South Carolina in the Citrus Bowl, marking their first 10-win season since 2001. Quarterback Luke Altmyer, who will return next season, led the Illini in a game featuring five lead changes. Running back Josh McCray, Bret Bielema's first recruit at Illinois, was named the game's MVP. The Illini achieved this win without their elite wide receiver Pat Bryant. The game was also marked by a heated exchange between Illinois head coach Bret Bielema and South Carolina's Shane Beamer following a controversial play involving a South Carolina player's 'T-pose' gesture that appeared to signal a fair catch, causing confusion on the field. Despite the tension, both coaches engaged in a post-game handshake. The victory signifies a significant milestone for Illinois under Bielema, setting the tone for the offseason.
