Duke at Northwestern. I have no words.
For those who want to get a look at Illinois' next opponent after Virginia, EIU hosts Chattanooga Saturday night at 6:00 PM with the game airing on ESPN+.

just a sincere thank you and shout out to you for posting all the state school stuff every week. thanks dude
You are very welcome sir.
EIU and other OVC sports are on ESPN+ and have been for several years now. A lot better than when it was on the OVC Digital Network. Honestly I only have ESPN+ for EIU football anymore now. I've basically checked out on EIU basketball except for a game here or there because of how far the program has fallen.
Top games today include Alabama-Texas, Tennessee-Pittsburgh, Kentucky-Florida, and Baylor-BYU.
Among the state schools, there's Chattanooga at EIU, WIU at Minnesota, SEMO at SIU, Valpo at ISU, and NIU at Tulsa.

I’m starting to think NW sucks again (hopefully that holds). If so, man losing to them must REALLY hurt for Frost/Nebby.
So far Northwestern is getting swamped. There are more fans at a Tx high school game than at the NW game.
The weird thing is, it sounds like there might be a decent crowd there. Maybe they are still piping in the crowd noise.

That was an incredibly weak roughing the passer. That should be a safety. What in the world. Alabama getting let off the hook when their offense looks absolutely horrible.
EDIT: LOL WHAT. I mean they made the right decision ultimately, but that's nuts. Offeciating in college football makes zero sense at this point.

Didn’t see it, care to play-by-play?

The quarterback wasn’t down, so he still was fair game. The defender never came close to hitting him in the head, let alone hitting him at all. Was there a receiver even in the area? He wasn’t out of the tackle box and the ball didn’t go across the line of scrimmage. Should have been a safety!

Bryce Young gets wrapped up in the end-zone, but kind of falls on the player sacking him. Two Texas players come in to finish the safety. It looks like a legit safety. Of course, the two Texas players get called for targeting and roughing the passer. The targeting gets reviewed (the roughing the passer is not reviewable). After the review, the official states that he called the roughing the passer penalty by mistake and that there was no targeting AND they are taking away the roughing the passer, but Bryce Young got the ball away and it's 4th down.
Basically, roughing the passer isn't supposed to be reviewed, but was. No penalty is the right call, but the way they got there is laughable. Also, I'm unconvinced the pass happened before he was down.
If this was confusing, let me tell you it was every bit as confusing watching it in real time.

No matter how this game ends, you can't convince me this Alabama team is the best in the country. They look entirely mediocre.

Way too many penalties.

I wonder if Saban is going to "tarmac" Bill O'Brien if they end up losing this game.
Agree. Though the 14 penalties they have through 3 quarters — wait 15 now — might have something to do with it. Look totally undisciplined. Couldn’t happen to a better coach.
My hot take for the day — Bryce Young is a pretty good player.
