Game Thread: Illinois at Nebraska

[superfan]

Great call and even better blitz pickup

 

[CDRUSN]

Dixon is having himself a ball game. Sure hope Franklin is not hurt bad though.

 

[TheodoreRex]

I really hope Franklin is ok. Also, can we talk about the fact that while our o-line is terrible at establishing the run, they have been pretty good in pass protection.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

He's out. Elzy?

Gotta be, right? If there's ever a stage for him to show his potential, this is it

 

[abchew2]

Well not feeling like the clean start I was hopeful for.

[FeelYourPaign]

After that wonderful opening drive, I was hoping for more at this point

 

[Neidermeyer]

When they pan the crowd - what a bunch of mouth breathers.

 

[dsg]

Wheels came off the bus that drive

 

[aaeismacgychel]

I think you punt this and hope to pin them

 

[superfan]

Decision time

 

[CDRUSN]

Agree with BB on the punt. We can't afford to give Nebby another short field.

 

[DeeAndDWill]

Can’t allow points this drive.

Wheels came off the bus that drive

Drive looked okay to me, a couple bad penalties crept in there

 

[Illini1977]

Gotta have a stop D

 

[RML]

Gotta get a stop here.

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

If Franklin's out...

please no...just no...

 

[FoundersClub]

Most important series of the game right here.

 

[LFOD]

I wouldn’t mind seeing some pressure on mini Mahomes

 

[Illini-Rule]

Saving Valentine for the 4th qtr?

Have to be more disciplined. Penalties are such a drive killer

 

[BWBW]

Nebraska made defensive adjustments. I hope we do too.

 

[Illini4Christ]

I want a pick six right now against Raiola.

 

[NorthShoreIllini]

Hate that punt

Everyone have a drink
