NASHVILLE, TN (WAND) -- Sunday wrapped up practices for Illinois ahead of the Music City Bowl Game.
For the third time in head coach Brett Bielema's time at Illinois, the Illini are in a bowl game. In the last two seasons, they have won 18 total games and now look to make history by winning back-to-back bowl games for the first time in program history.
For seniors like Kenenna Odeluga and Dylan Rosiek, they say they are blessed to have played a part in putting Illinois in the national spotlight from when they first joined the program.
The Music City Bowl game kicks off Tuesday Dec. 30 at 4:30 p.m. at Nissan Stadium.
