Ray Nitschke speaks to our 1990 Illinois football team prior to Purdue game that year. We finished the season tied for first place in the Big Ten with Iowa (the eventual Rose Bowl representative), Michigan, and Michigan State. We all finished 6-2 in conference. This still stands as the greatest motivational speech I ever heard. And you know, there were 14 future NFL stars in that crowd of players that Friday afternoon, but there still was only one NFL Hall of Famer there that day............and that's the man speaking.
