Game Thread: Illinois at Indiana

[blife]

Special teams has given them all their points so far. Not good

 

[The Galloping Ghost]

Look, man. This is big-boy football between two good teams. It's gonna be a shoot-out. We've been through so many years of bad football. Strap in and enjoy this.

 

[TheFlyingIllini1317]

Beat ourselves twice for 14 points, can't do that

 

[Mr. Roberts]

No more punts. It's a shootout.

 

[PasadenaIllini]

Our absences in the secondary killed us on the back end of that Indiana drive.

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

Bret has got to give the D a kick in the butt. Planning to outscore an opponent on its home field is a losing strategy. We need stops.

Here comes the chess match, Cignetti won that turn.

He's won all game so far.

 

[ChiTown]

This have the makings of a shot out.

 

[Illinisnake]

Late substitutions are getting old and annoying.

 

[Nuke Dukem]

So ... is the season over again?

 

[FloridaMan]

IL Special teams 14, IL 7

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Their lead is 100% on us, not what I expected.

 

[Illinifan533]

What were we thinking with that TO. Just awful

Return team subbed in late, Bret was trying to avoid a penalty

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Ok, let's go take it straight down the field, tie this up

 

[krushalot2005]

Honestly I think missing X Scott will make this real tough

 

[BWBW]

Not a good start.

 

[HailtotheChief]

TACKLE! Crap!

 

[blife]

What is with all the weak arm tackling Bullsh&t. Hit somebody

 

[Scoregasm]

Heckel missed that tackle on the TD.

 

[IlliniInCAN]

Someone should tell them this is tackle football, not two hand touch

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

I mean... going off that drive, we do not have a secondary.

 

[Oldskoolkoach]

That late, drag-!!! substitution cost us there

 

[GallopingGhost]

If we weren’t late on that sub and had to take a timeout… we’d have the ball rn

 

[Illini1977]

Both TDs have been weird l, I’m annoyed

 

[ILLFAN67]

Two big mistakes cost you dearly.
