My wife thinks I am insane to watch Illinois football.
Time to send some row boats up the creek without their paddles.
Minnesota might not have to throw the ball the whole game - this game will come down to the Illinois defense forcing turnovers. If Minnesota turns it over a couple of times and Illinois plays a clean game, there is a chance.
If not.... I don't know if the defense will force a punt.
"up a creek" = going against the currentAgreed. But wouldnt it be more hurtful if we sent them down a creek ... I have never understood that phrase.
