Hank Beatty - Scores in victory Beatty caught all two targets for 31 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 38-31 victory over Rutgers.
Impact Beatty found the end zone in the second quarter, connecting with quarterback Luke Altmyer on a 16-yard strike to bring the Fighting Illini to within a point at the time. The junior receiver has struggled to generate consistent production throughout the season, as he has caught more than two passes in a game just once. His final opportunity to improve his regular season statistics will come when the Fighting Illini travel to face Northwestern on Saturday.

Pat Bryant - Monster day in victory Bryant caught 7 of 13 targets for 197 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 38-31 victory versus Rutgers.
Impact It was a career day for Bryant, as the senior receiver tied a season-best with seven catches and logged a new career-high with 197 yards on the day. The true highlight of the day, however, came on a 40-yard catch and run touchdown to give the Fighting Illini the lead with just four seconds left on the clock. Bryant has been a playmaker throughout the season, as he has recorded 50 catches for 914 yards and nine touchdowns through 11 games. A season finale against Northwestern on Saturday will serve as his final opportunity to improve his regular season numbers.

Josh McCray - Scores in victory McCray recorded 13 carries for 58 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 38-31 victory over Rutgers.
Impact McCray found the end zone on a four-yard run in the third quarter to bring the Fighting Illini to within two points at the time. McCray has been hot lately, accounting for 191 yards and five touchdowns on the ground through the last three games. Overall, it's been a solid, while unremarkable, season for McCray, with the junior running back totaling 449 yards and eight touchdowns on the ground through 11 games while adding 12 receptions for 111 yards and a score through the air as well. The team's season finale against Northwestern on Saturday will be his final opportunity to improve his regular season numbers.

Luke Altmyer - Three total scores in victory Altmyer completed 12 of 26 passes for 249 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 38-31 win versus Rutgers. He also had 11 rushes for 74 yards with one touchdown.
Impact Despite completing less than 50 percent of his passes on the day, Altmyer had a statistically productive day, due in large part to his season-best contribution in the running game. The junior quarterback ran for 74 yards on the day, including a 30-yard touchdown scamper in the fourth quarter to give Illinois a 30-24 lead at the time. Altmyer was no slouch through the air either, throwing for 249 yards and a pair of scores, including a 40-yard strike to receiver Pat Bryant to give the Fighting Illini the lead with just four seconds remaining in the game. Altmyer has had a nice season for Illinois this year, throwing for 2,373 yards and 20 touchdowns to just three interceptions while adding 242 yards and three scores on the ground as well. The season finale against Northwestern will serve as his final opportunity to polish those regular season numbers.

Zakhari Franklin - Expected to be available vs. 'Cats Franklin suffered a soft tissue injury against Rutgers, but is expected to be good to go against Northwestern, Joey Wagner of 247Sports.com reports.
Impact Franklin's injury was sustained in-game against the Scarlet Knights, which helps explain why he failed to log a catch. The wideout should be good to go, however, for Illinois' rivalry game against Northwestern on Nov. 30.
