Game Thread: Illinois vs Florida Atlantic

[RockfordIllini]

Would love to see more RPO. Think that’s where Luke really thrives. In rhythm quick hitters.

 

[Rap47]

Defense can't win games if offense can't score. Whoever is calling this offense, shouldn't be.

 

[Da88]

I'm happy for Chase Brown and his NFL opportunity that he didn't have to run behind this year's line. His production would have likely been far worse.

 

[CDRUSN]

We'll find out on this possession if the Illini got the stupid play out of the way and are ready to go to work. Play calling as usual is suspect.

 

[BDMAN]

We have no run game to speak of, not one RB moves the ball with consistency nor is a breakaway threat to take it to house when they get in the open. At least not any that have played thus far. Valentine will get a lot of tick next year as freshmen if not one emerges from that group this year.

 

[ChiTown]

Lackadaisical pass rushing,no one is getting home,no QB hurry and QB sitting in the clean pocket.

 

[Mr. Tibbs]

Maybe this is a bad team.

i will wait until the 1/2 way point in the season to really make my judgement , but clearly we are not real good and have along ways to go to be a 7 win team

without a good running game , we scare no one

 

[Pikeillinifan]

I really thought we made strides in the PSU game, despite the turnovers.

 

[Ryllini]

Good Lord!

 

[Illini4Chief]

Gettin painful to watch.....

 

[Ramrod2010]

This bad.

 

[FloridaMan]

Un. In. Spired. Really disappointing team.

 

[Ryllini]

I do wonder though, should Bret strip Barry of play calling duties, who is next man up?

 

[illini80]

Not good. Adam’s is having a brutal game

 

[TheChief4Life]

This team looks like absolute trash. Whose fault is this?

 

[Mr. Roberts]

We don't block anybody.

And another stupid penalty.

 

[thehass]

We are showing a very intricate offense now and it seems to be working......................................not

 

[STLIlliniMike]

We’ve had two drives and we’ve ran Reggie right at them twice the first two plays….

 

[PNWIllini]

The way things have been playing out, you may be the lucky one.

Sadly you arent wrong

 

[Gbop]

Good God, we suck.

 

[FloridaMan]

19 should sit the rest of the game. WTF???!!!!!!

 

[john1952]

Gotta have longer than 2 seconds to find one's receivers.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Un. In. Spired. Really disappointing team.

They really are playing uninspired.

And that was absolutely not a penalty.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

And now a stupid late hit. Just checking all the boxes right now...

 

[BDMAN]

this O-line is going to make recruits rethink their decision to come here
