4. Isaiah Williams leads the game in receiving yards
If you don’t know the name Isaiah Williams, learn it quickly. The Illini’s leading receiver in 2022 is a tremendous talent in the slot who can make defenders miss and run routes with the best of them.
Receiving production is often scattered for Kansas. Even the No. 5 and 6 wideouts on the depth chart see a considerable amount of snaps each game. Illinois zones in more on their star players, and Williams should be a difference-maker in the passing game.
