Game Thread: Illinois vs Ohio State

You forgot broken nose
Hopefully he responds. He's certainly better than he has played in the last month. Let's hope this serves as the motivation needed for him to realize that and put forth the effort to get back to his early season play.Boswell benched?
let's see how Boswell and Hummer respond to not starting. Hopefully it takes some pressure off, and they perform better.

headline from CBS email just now… I mean, we played ourselves into a position to deserve this, but they could have gone a different direction with it

Watch Live on CBS!Agree, and let's hope changes are also made there.
YES YES YES
This is great to see and I sincerely hope that this isn’t one of those times where he subs Ben and Kylan in after 2 minutes of the game. But rather that DGL actually plays starters minutes today….
Ok, we(the fans) need to cut the garbage with Brad suddenly coming to his senses. We, those who have absolutely no personal relationships with these guys, can sit here and be opinionated morons week in and week out. Our opinions and back and forth are all in good fun.
Brad has recruited these guys, he's been in living rooms with parents, he sees them every day, the relationship and level of love(strong word) is off the charts. He's going to stick with his guys and he's going to believe in them. For him to get to this point, he has to get in a couple of guys faces and basically say....I don't believe in you. You're hurting us. That message has to suck.
If he gets the reputation of having a quick hook, good luck recruiting.
Now, NOBODY can dispute that absolute garbage versus Nebraska. That's was disgusting in every facet. That couldn't be ignored and a change was mandatory before he lost his team because it wasn't far off.
His job is to win, obviously. His employment depends on it. However, the keyboard warriors have absolutely no clue the level of relationship that he has with those kids in the locker room.

Not expecting a lot of minutes from Ivisic but am hoping he provides a Willis Reed - type moment with some early scores before he sits down.

Will in for Tre and we’d really be cooking with gas. I think that’ll be next.
But this lineup is a great sign of adjustment. Run starts today.
