Game Thread: Illinois at Northwestern

[thehass]

Your attention please. This game has been moved from Wrigley to the twilight zone.

Now the offense is playing like crap, not sure what Luke was looking at, Bryant was well covered he had no chance to complete that pass. I did not like the field position on that INT

 

[TyroneHogglegg]

Just knew these guys would blow it today. 9-3 was too much to ask for.

Guys, the ball was tipped big at the line of scrimmage. Based on how the ball still got to Bryant my guess is Luke was trying to purposely airmail it.

 

[Jimbo]

We lead the series 57-55-1. Embarrassing.

What is attendance for this game? Wrigley seats around 39,000 I think but plenty of empty seats. Maybe 20,000 there?

 

[TheChief4Life]

Good blocking/run there. More of that please!

 

[LoveLovie]

Brilliant throw to Pat

I'm going to miss Pat Bryant next year

 

[Mr. Roberts]

So their is holding. Huh.

 

[JJE]

I'm going to miss Pat Bryant next year

He’s been special

 

[aaeismacgychel]

How do you get beat that bad blacking 2 on 1.

 

[Oracle21]

Wow that was a great play by the NW CB

 

[TheChief4Life]

Sheesh… such a slow pass

 

[IlliniRunIn07]

Luke almost throws another pick, not a great start.

 

[CDRUSN]

Relax everybody. The Illini will settle down, take control, and win this one going away.

 

[IlliniRunIn07]

How was he that open? I'll take it though!

 

[Jon]

Luke is having a weird day.

 

[OskeeLoyalty]

Nice Luke!

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Luke lollipopped that one out there. Buckle down

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Colin Dixon! 1st and goal!

 

[TheChief4Life]

Nice! Altmyer, despite some odd decisions/passes this game, is still a hell of a QB!

 

[NashvILLe05]

Not an excuse for performance but there are a lot of weird shadows on the field today that the teams need to adjust to.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Did they give that camera an obstructed view seat?
