In early September 2026, Illinois State defeated Western Illinois 41-10, moving to a 2-0 season record. The Redbirds established an early lead, driven by Victor Dawson’s two rushing touchdowns and a total offensive output of 496 yards. Later in the month, other Illinois-based college football teams secured significant wins. Northwestern defeated Colorado 41-7, led by Aidan Chiles’ five total touchdowns. Chiles completed 17-of-22 passes for 241 yards, with graduate running back Joseph Himon II catching all three of his touchdown passes.

Northwestern head coach David Braun recently signed a contract extension through 2031. Additionally, the University of Illinois defeated Southern Illinois 48-10 at a sold-out Gies Memorial Stadium.
