Game Thread: Illinois vs USC

[BlueFlag]

NO MORE 3-MAN RUSH, PLEASE!

 

[BrownTown]

Defense optional

 

[SuperMetroid]

Come on D. Totally unacceptable

 

[aaeismacgychel]

This game is absolutely off the walls for the national audience

 

[CogDog]

Tell my why Jacas wasn’t on the field 3rd and long and we only rush 3?

 

[Illinisnake]

That might be the worst defensive call I’ve ever seen on a 3rd and 16 lol what a joke

 

[Curbelo Fanboy]

14-14 incoming.

 

[Epsilon]

So much hard work blown in one play. We keep allowing them to keep their drives alive.

 

[superfan]

The broadcast team casually cited crowd noise in Memorial Stadium. “…so loud in here.” You love to hear it.

 

[punchabove33]

ok, it was 2 and +20 and was couldn't get off the field. unreal

It was like this last year.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

At this rate.. they might score anyways...

But at least they’ll run the clock,

 

[IlliniKat91]

At this rate.. they might score anyways...

I was gonna say, then gave it right back. It's almost like the D and AH are playing/calling scared

 

[Indy Illini Fan]

Defense is just not good … Thompson & Rosie down … Great …

Might be even worse now …

 

[RIP_Chief_2003]

Gosh- why is Rosiek in the game when we are up 14-7 in the 2Q?!?

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Oh boy. Bone jarring hits. Hope everyone is ok

 

[LFOD]

Oh no Rosiek

 

[Rap47]

3 man rush on 3rd down.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Hope that isn’t bad.

 

[BWBW]

Oh boy. Hope our guys are ok

 

[Mr. Roberts]

3rd and 16 is as easy as 2nd and 1. This is ridiculous.

 

[Ryllini]

How come JoJo doesn't get more tick. Still coming along? I thought we'd hear more of Malachi Hood's name this year. He has been pretty quiet.

 

[ChiTown]

Why the hell are we only rushing 3

So that we can give the quarterback enough time to pick us apart.

 

[Jimbo]

Watch, Rosiak will be out for the year. It’s our luck.

 

[Scoregasm]

Henry defense is just awful....launch this dude at halftime. We are wasting what talent we have.

 

[illinipioneer]

Need to dial it up or tighten coverage or else their qb is going to pick us apart, choose one and go for it, don’t like how we are scuttling golden opportunities we are getting early on..
