Normally love the aggressiveness, but three passes with a Freshman QB inside your own 10?

Looks like one of those slow crushing field position games. Need to make some big plays, but going to be very tough on this D

Wow. Way too aggressive from JGJr. He's just gunning back there.

Guess I can spend the afternoon doing literally anything else.

If you stuck around for the entire Michigan game, there were some positives. Not feeling that's going to be the case today, though.

I really don't like the decision to play George if Lunt is healthy.

There's no point in putting Lunt in there now. Might as well let George finish the game. Hope Lunt starts next week.

If Illinois loses this game, there's no reason to start Lunt the rest of the year.

As a season ticket holder, I would like to see them put in the players that give Illinois the best chance to win, at least next week. If it's Lunt, so be it.

Disagree completely.

When you're Illinois, you have to play to win games, regardless of whether you're bowl-bound or not. We don't have the luxury of grooming players for some utopian future. I want to watch a respectable team. I want to beat Northwestern and spoil their bowl hopes. I don't want to watch an inexperienced Freshman throw 4 INTs just for the sake of gaining experience.

Also as a season ticket holder, I'd rather they start worrying about next year. This year was a bust anyway. A bowl game was only a fool's hope, and winning 5 games means nothing.
