Let's be real about this - opposing fans are going to be pretty reasonable because the vast majority of us right now are still in something of a "we're happy to be in this position" right now. If Illinois becomes good to really good on a consistent level, I really hope we don't get to that "arrogant fan" level.This chain of Reasonable Opposing Fans paying us friendly visits is just not sustainable.
I think you're absolutely right that you'll throw some stuff at us in key moments we didn't know we had to prepare for (that's exactly what we did to Nebraska last week).
Having suffered through 30 years of consistently bad Illini football and a decade of bad Illini basketball, I'm not sure I'll ever be in the arrogant fan realm. I'll always remember the bad years and know that being good is not something to take for granted.
