    ESPN showing Illinois-12. I think we need to win by way more than that.

    Penn State 30, Illinois 13 Postgame

    I don't know if this has been mentioned, but I was furious that they left Johnny Newton in the game, especially in the last 7 or 8 minutes. You don't risk injuring your team's best player in the closing minutes of a game like this. Secondly, I thought the defense showed a lot of improvement...

    I don't think Voois or Buchanan played as individuals. Voois had the worst score in the first round and Buchanan had the worst score in the second round. Therefore their scores didn't count for that particular round.

    Kansas 34, Illinois 23 Postgame

    Last year Jacas had more talent around him (blitzing LBs, DBs, etc.), which opened up more holes for him to get to the QB.

    Kansas 34, Illinois 23 Postgame

    I had a scary thought this morning- imagine what this defense would look like if Newton and Randolph had gone pro after last season šŸ˜³.

    Kansas 34, Illinois 23 Postgame

    My observations from the KU game- Our OL looks awful, considering that I thought that unit would be one of the strengths of this team. They can't open up big enough holes for the RB's and are having trouble giving Altmyer enough time in the pocket. Altmyer is a great QB and we are fortunate to...
