Ahead of Redbox Bowl, Illinois gives back to San Francisco community through food, clothing
Published:
The 2019 Redbox Bowl between Illinois and California is taking place in San Francisco, Calif. on Monday, Dec. 30. The game will be televised on FOX.
Ahead of the matchup, plenty of preparation must take place. Not just the practice time, but the film work as well. The travel is another aspect of playing in a bowl game. There’s a lot that goes into it.
That being said, it’s what people do thanks to sports that makes sports to great. The games themselves are phenomenal. But making a difference is even better.

Illinois got to do that in the San Francisco area prior to the game by providing food and clothing at St. Anthony’s in the community:
