Game Thread: Illinois vs Nebraska

[altgeld88]

I honestly don’t remember ever seeing that in the 20 years I’ve been watching this team. Hyperbole?

we’ve had a lot of weak coaching in my lifetime…

Turner's '01 team did that. And Zook's team in '07. I remember that 4th quarter @ OSU in '07 when Juice Williams drove the team for 14:30 out of 15:00 and nailed down the upset of #1. And I don't even believe we scored.

Nicely done

 

[skyIdub]

Lmao @ Nebby punts.

 

[DReq]

Nice for the Illini to cause nightmares for Nebraska!

Should have listened to 0440 and dropped a sack of $$$ on this game!

We're playing so well right now I'm starting to think we are winning for reasons other than just Martinez being so bad.

 

[Go Nats 88 Illini]

Wow D-Line>O-Line (though O-line has gotten beetr throughout the game, especially on the run).

Wow, my boy and I tested + for covid yesterday. I tried to unload my 2 great season tickets, so seats wouldn't be empty and team has support.
1. So heart felt sadness for Qb1
2. So proud of our students for showing up. I got 5 footballers from last years St. Teresa team there minus my boy.
3. Sad for fan turnout. We were so excited for this morning, team walk, band, and game and all the boyz attending UofI together.
4. Worried about coaches confidence in Art Qb2.
Go Illini 2nd half.

I got diagnosed today.. best for me to stay away from the clinics. Would be a rough look for a bottom-of-the-barrel med student. This dominance is certainly a good escape!

Hold on to the football and punch them in the gut for 19 minutes.

[madillini4]

our QB’s make amazing WR’s

 

[CubsIlliniFan]

What a call!!! Deuce Span!!!!!

 

[Ransom Stoddard]

That's gotta stand.

 

[orange100]

Bert Ball is a hell of a drug.

 

[Ramrod2010]

Lmao @ Nebby punts.

"College special teams"... They also missed the extra point.

Seriously, our special teams are such an advantage.

And my God, that pass.

 

[SuperMetroid]

Looks good to me

 

[PNWIllini]

Thats got to be a catch

 

[RedRocksIllini]

any other QBs we can move to receiver?

 

[skyIdub]

Give him 6.

 

[Go Nats 88 Illini]

No way - he was in bounds!!!
