Game Thread: Illinois at Iowa

[skyIdub]

I mean, if you have The Fridge as your QB....that's an easy sneak....

 

[LFOD]

Luke is definitely our QB of the future, but with a slower release and a recent concussion, John was the only good choice to give us a chance to pull this one out today.

Yep, there’s not another millisecond available to hold the ball.

 

[BWBW]

Nice kick

 

[Jimbo]

Ok. That helps.

Keep the kick off in bounds please.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

That was a really bad snap. Great job to place it for the kicker. I thought there was no chance with that snap we'd be able to kick it

 

[illinoistradition]

Bad play call. Why are we so bad at 3rd and less than a yard!??!!???!!!!!

Bad play call? Holy cow. Lunney is in a no win situation with this fan base. How many complaints have we had about being in shotgun for 3rd and short? And then we do the obvious call there, Paddock has a chance to get it, makes a mistake, and that’s Lunney’s fault?!

Terrible snap.

Gee if we only had a big tall, bad boy running back. Would have been an easy first down. If only our RB's had stayed healthy this year much different season.

I think we'd be up 2 scores easy if Feagan was healthy

 

[zentrails]

gotta kick here

Man I thought he missed it wide right bad camera angle I guess
any rate way to go Caleb!

 

[TheGMan]

Are their field goal posts shorter than normal?

 

[Illiniaaron]

Please shut them down D.

 

[phats22]

Turnover time.....

 

[BWBW]

Paddock as GA next year?

 

[HailtotheChief]

Let's make the Iowa QB turn ut over. He has been lucky s few times and on that fumble. Let's get him!

 

[SuperMetroid]

Ugh really wanted 7 there but gotta kick and make Stay-Puft beat you

 

[TheChief4Life]

 

[skyIdub]

Oooooh a TO here would tickle my pickle...


Edit: or a 3 and out!!!

 

[Jimbo]

I feel a pick coming up here.

 

[ChiefKingfisher]

I could’ve sworn Griffin missed that field goal. Did anyone else see that or do I need glasses?

It was very very close.

 

[eas23]

I saw the rubber pellets fly outta bounds but I didn't get a clear view if Williams was actually out or not

I rewound it and still couldn't tell. Might have been a heel off the ground situation, but not obvious either way.

Definitely trickier than I wanted it to be...

I thought he missed it too.

Lunney has called a phenomenal game today. There really isn't anything negative that can be said of him today.

 

[BWBW]

Nice stop
