Illinois Football: Depth Chart Against the Rutgers Scarlet Knights

The Illinois football team heads into the game this weekend needing a win against the Rutgers Scarlet Knights.

Last week, Chayce Crouch made a good push for the starting job, but it looks like Wes Lunt will be the starter once again.

                            DT: Chunky Clements

                              DT: Rob Bain

                                DE: Carroll Phillips

                                  WLB: Julian Jones

                                    MLB: Hardy Nickerson

                                      SLB: Tre Watson

                                        CB: Jalen Dunlap

                                          FS: Taylor Barton

                                                The depth chart is going to look pretty similar to last week.  There could be a few changes on defense, but I think it will end up looking like this when Saturday rolls around.

                                                Illinois needs to beat the Scarlet Knights.  This weekend is extremely important for the future.
