Like that Buffalo running game.

 

[O’Malley’s Wall]

Buffalo’s apparent style of Defense should fit our player’s strength quite well....tackling seems optional.

 

[ILL_INI]

Is this going to count as the Buffalo - Ball State game thread? I missed the first touchdown. Anything of note?

 

[Maniscalco Madness]

Damn, this is a fun offense to watch

Missed the first one - but 2nd TD drive looked pretty nice execution-wise. Not sure BB could have done that

 

[EyeoftheIllini]

I’ve seen more emotion from LL in less than a quarter than you see out of Lovie in 3 or 4 games.

 

[The Ghost]

Watching 1Q and I have no doubt Buffalo would beat the Illini. I’m on board for the Lance train to come to Champaign.

 

[Illinivek23]

Using and throwing to TEs

 

[O’Malley’s Wall]

Much better series on D. I’d Ike to watch guys come around the edge like that more often.

 

[BigJIllini]

Can already tell Buffalo way better coached than we have been.

 

[Deleted member 29907]

Very nice play on 4th and 1 to draw BState off sides. This offense seems to have a plan

Big question is - will this thread draw more comments than our Ped state game tomorrow?

 

[Deleted member 29907]

Very quick hit passes.

 

[IndyILL]

After watching the first quarter... I on the LL bandwagon! Well coached Machine

 

[ILL_INI]

He doesn't have to bring over the special teams coach, right?

Brian Kelly compalining about his players' families not being able to attend the Rose Bowl game if the Irish get slotted into that game in the CFP playoff as to be one of the more tone deaf things I've heard in awhile.

If you are in the BB camp, this is your example of personality not being a major factor...Kelly is a colossal A-hole.

 

[Retro62]

On another note...LL would need a serious DC

 

[ChiefGritty]

That red zone hold is a game saver.

 

[ChiefGritty]

I hate that possession from Ball State. Just keep playing.

 

[Point-Illinois]

I just tuned into the B1G Championship and it was 16-10 tOSU. I figured it was in the 2nd quarter.

Nope, 5 min left in the game. NW played it way closer than I thought they would.

tOSU just scored to make it 22-10 with 4 min left. But still, way closer than I thought.

Love the B1G game in 60 on BTN. Just watched Wisky - Minny game. Felt bad for Minn. with the missed FG in OT — NOT.
