Well, that was fun! Let’s do that again!
Missed it. Anybody care to share?Anyone else think trolling Nebraska on twitter by the Illini Athletics account a is a bad look?
Personally, I was amused. Nebby wanted a season so badly and it's not working out for them.Missed it. Anybody care to share?

I need someone to look this up for me: Is this the first time that an Aussie punter has run for a first down for Illinois? I think it actually may be.I think the fake punt was improvised.
Not true. Illinois had a punter in early 80’s name Crocodile Dundee. His run was for a touchdown.I need someone to look this up for me: Is this the first time that an Aussie punter has run for a first down for Illinois? I think it actually may be.
Agreed. I saw it as less a taunt about the game, and more about their overzealous push to start the season (which week one resulted in cancelled games and athletes missing weeks due to covid)Personally, I was amused. Nebby wanted a season so badly and it's not working out for them.
I feel like stuff like this - and our earlier tweet - are all part of the social media side of sports. Even professional teams do it.For those concerned about us trolling Nebraska after the game, apparently Minnesota posted this on their FB page a couple weeks back (sorry I can't make the image any smaller):

From last night - According to Husker athletics, "Collin Miller was transported to Bryan LGH West Hospital for precautionary reasons. Miller has movement in all of his extremities, and the results of all diagnostic imaging and testing on Miller were normal. He will stay overnight at the hospital for observation and at this point the prognosis looks promising."Congrats to the Illini! Today was the the best I have seen an Illini QB perform in years. Great job by both sides of the ball. Any news yet on the injuries to Newton, Barnes, and the scary injury to Colin Miller for the Huskers?
I don’t know how many snaps he had yesterday, but he’s played well in blocking situations. Not sure why he’s not targeted more other than Barker has played well.Luke Ford has gotten 1 reception all season. I really don't understand what is going on there at all. We made such a big fuss about him being immediately eligible and now that he actually is, we don't use him at all? Is he injured or out or something that I'm missing?
Nebraska probably deserved it since they knocked Illinois when people were speculating which schools didn't want to play due to the pandemic |
To each his own I guess. When we just won our first game in 96 years in Lincoln I wouldn’t be getting cocky but I’m in the minority here so it’s just my old man coming out.
I get what you are saying. The other thing is, the rest of the college football world isn't laughing just because Nebraska got blown out, it's that they got blown out against Illinois.To each his own I guess.

And honestly, if it weren’t for Nebraska and Ohio State we wouldn’t be playing football at all so I give them props for having the balls to stand up and fight for a season. I found it interesting when the Nebraska play by play guy said on a normal home football game 1 out of every 20 people in the entire state are in the stadium.
