The Fighting Illini football team had an amazing 1951 season! With just one scoreless tie against Ohio State, they ended the regular season with a 9-0-1 record and a spot in the Rose Bowl. Led by All-Americans Chuck Boerio, Al Brosky, and Johnny Karras, they dominated Stanford 40-7 in Pasadena on New Year's Day 1952, on their way to their fifth national title in the first nationally televised college football game ever. This shirt is brought to you by College Vault.
