Thinking that Rutgers would be favored if played on a neutral field. Therefore, speculating that the opening line will hover somewhere near a "toss-up".

If he throws the ball! Artur was a horrible part but at least he'd throw the ball... if Peter would just give his guys a chance if be happier with him... just don't hold the ball and take sacks. He did good on that play by giving his guy a chance even though he was open a while before he threw it... we definitely need a quarterback because the ones we have are not it! But we won even with that QB play! At least they had to honor our passing game because we kept testing them deep and our receivers kept getting behind them!
A couple of years ago there were Chinese students doing a media thing. Does anyone have that audio ? or did they quit ?
Still so jacked about winning yesterday.
Might just need to run the replay on loop.

Knowing our student body I'm a little surprised I haven't seen the call in Klingon or Dothraki yet.

I just finished the 9th OT. I'm amazed my DVR got it all.
We don't want to get ahead of ourselves, but the rest of the schedule are ALL winnable games. If we stick to what we do best (clearly, pounding the football on the ground), I would have us favored in all of those games, regardless of records. A bowl game is still possible.
Is that a PSU worker in the middle of our 2 radio guys? He's wearing blue and white, and doesn't seem excited LOL. If so, what is he doing there? If he's an Illini guy, he really contained his excitement.

That's the part of this that I'm as jacked about as anything else. We screwed up PSU's Homecoming.
Thanks for the flashback... What a comeback in that game. I remember watching that by myself in the living room of my sophomore year off campus house. I also remember yelling at Harvey to get down so we could run the clock out instead of scoring that last TD, and also yelling at Turner to go for 2 on the extra point. We've been really good at trying to give away wins, but sometimes we do pull it out
It dawned on me that Chase Brown really reminds me of Matt Forte. Maybe not the pass catcher (yet), but the way he can make one cut and go to me is very Forte/esque. I think he plays in the NFL for sure.
Illinois was unranked in 2007 the week they beat tOSU. They were ranked the next week, got as high as 13, and ended up 13 in the coaches poll, 20 in AP.

I would LOVE to listen to a game in Klingon. I can hear it now, on the final play of the game... "taH pagh taHbe'!"
Klaatu barada nikto. In English, get thee Illini to a bowl game. Gort says so or else.
I'm not sure. I'm wondering if it's their statistician maybe?

Wife and I ran errands after the game yesterday afternoon wearing Chief shirts. Multiple people stopped us and commented on the game. It's nice to have Illinois football be a random topic of conversation at Costco stores in Southern Colorado!
Just an awesome game and win
With new OT rules, every coaching staff in America will watch this game, trying to come up with strategy for OT. Good for coaches/players/program.
