| 1640485788843425794 | @thecfbnetwork @BeaverFootball @IlliniFootball @BarstoolBeavs @IlliniAthletics @BarstoolILL I grew up in Champaign. I’ve never been to Corvallis. Makes it an easy decision for me…Corvallis by a country mile | 38 |
| 1640467625678368768 | @thecfbnetwork @BeaverFootball @IlliniFootball @BarstoolBeavs @IlliniAthletics @BarstoolILL Better in what sense? Prettier? Champaign. More fun? Champaign. Better school? Champaign. #Illini | 37 |
| 1640468861475602433 | @chjulian1 @thecfbnetwork @BeaverFootball @IlliniFootball @BarstoolBeavs @IlliniAthletics @BarstoolILL I went to Illinois. My son goes to Oregon State.
