#illini QB Luke Altmyer said some South Carolina players thought they were Syracuse at a combined team event this week.
"Been hearing all this talk about SEC, SEC in the playoff and things like that, and I'm just tired of the disrespect. Illinois has been a disrespected program for a long time. I know that because I'm from that area and that conference. I don't think that's the case anymore."
