You really think they'll score more at Ohio State than they just did at Nebraska?

I'm still shell shocked.

tOSU:2
UI:0

That's the official score for a forfeit, right?

mdonsbach · Feb 18, 2012, 06:43 PM

Now watch end up playing out of their minds

Mike · Feb 18, 2012, 06:47 PM

Likely to get decimated ugly like.
Still, this game is a huge opportunity for our team...

0xdeadbeef · Feb 18, 2012, 06:47 PM

tOSU 83
Illini 56

Efrem85 · Feb 18, 2012, 06:51 PM

Fire weber, let Wayne coach, bring back frank,Sergio, Marcus, Willie Coleman, ivan Watson, and darryl ivory and we will straight up roll people manual style.

IlliniSteve · Feb 18, 2012, 07:13 PM

Can't wait for us to be verbally dissected and embarrassed by whoever announces for ESPN...they'll eat this stuff up

chief3469 · Feb 18, 2012, 07:19 PM

they'll be mad about losing here. it gets even uglier as we lose 90-39

jackman404 · Feb 18, 2012, 07:37 PM

This is an honest question, so if anyone knows the answer I would appreciate it, what is the record for the biggest loss in school history?

This one could hit 40.

Illinois: 45
Ohio State: 83

TexasIllini · Feb 18, 2012, 07:42 PM

Ohio State 90
Illinois 37

I really think they will play loose now, nothing to lose. With that being said i still think they lose. But i think they will make a few shots, if they can get hot we can make it close. But either way we lose.

Yep, I think you're right. And they know they can beat these guys.

I'm going to be the crazy one to suggest the mother of all bouncebacks:

Illinois 67
Ohio State 64

They know they could have beaten these guys, and that was weeks ago before the whole thing started to unravel.

UI 55
tOSU 83

As optimistic as I was 6 weeks ago, this season was effectively over when UNL had a 31 point lead.

Bill74 · Feb 18, 2012, 08:59 PM

Can we ask not to be televised, and eat the revenue, or do we have to check with the B1G Commish?

KSmooth · Feb 18, 2012, 09:21 PM

Good news: offense loosens up.
Bad news: defense loosens up too.
Illinois 73
OSU 104

SilverChief · Feb 18, 2012, 09:27 PM

Good point. It would most helpful if no more of our games were televised for the rest of the season!

IlliniRon · Feb 18, 2012, 10:40 PM

This one's easy:

OSU 87
Illini 61

Hope the freshman get a chance to play at least.

OrangeFever · Feb 18, 2012, 10:53 PM

They'll be hungry for revenge after what happened in Champaign, and angry having lost to the Michigan schools. I can't envision a close game. If we play like we did today, we lose by 45. I don't expect that to happen, but I do expect that we'll get plastered, guaranteeing no better than 7-11 in the B1G. Most likely, our best conference finish is 6-12, assuming we can stagger past Iowa at home.

CharlesLawrence · Feb 18, 2012, 11:26 PM

UPSET CITTTTTTYYYY BABY.. I say ML get 30 and 15 .. just a thought

the national · Feb 18, 2012, 11:40 PM

I think it'll be close, like so many of our games but we'll lose. Its the reoccurring nightmare....63-59. Sad. I'm still bleeding orange and blue though.
