The Illini are bigger and more physical - thanks upperclassmen and Lou.

 

[the Castle on Daniel]

We’re up big at the start, which I said would be a great sign for us last week. Now I want that score RAN UP!!

 

[Deleted member 746684]

Keep the ball on the ground on offense and I think we're golden.

 

[SampsonRelpenk]

Am I imagining things or is PU not really loading the box? Safeties seem relatively deep. I'd expect that to change.

Can we hold on? Please let us hold on.

OOOHH the chosen one just had a bad time management at the end of the half. Interesting that it was someone other than Lovie this time

 

[DonIllini]

This defense is swarming to the ball and the defensive line is playing another great game up front. Just run the ball get another score. Break there will!!!!

I’ll have to watch it back to see but if so, great observation. I wouldn’t know the answer. Bhebe getting vertical today is not what I’d be scheming to defend.

Maybe that downfield chuck to him on the first series served some purpose after all.

That would incredibly odd but believe me, I’m not gonna run down there and ask him to stop.

Is it wrong that when my wife asked if I wanted a snack I had to tell her I was too nervous to eat???

 

[Illiniwek66]

Wow, there is NO ONE at that game.

LOL. I'm choking down a bowl of cereal so I don't get lightheaded.

Oh wow the sideline reporter saying that "Brohm ran away from me because he seems very unhappy"


Whew this is a different feeling haha

I wouldn't get calm until we're up by 45 pts with 6 mins to go.

The weather is a special kind of horrible I think. Cold and rainy is almost worse than snow.

 

[POWURR]

2nd half. Let’s go!

 

[Deleted member 29907]

Good thing Barker can catch well cause he's not a stellar blocker

 

[Twangers]

Richie missed a big block that could have freed Reggie it appeared.

 

[OskeeWowzer]

Do we not have any sort of hot route? Everyone and their brother knew they were sending the house there...

Yeah, you'd think slipping a back out of the backfield would slow down that rush.

 

[BWBW]

Bad situation

 

[Halloweenie]

Not a good start..great play by hayes

 

[Deleted member 649710]

Can we do over that start to the half?

 

[Halloweenie]

Milan playing great
