Game Thread: Illinois at Purdue

[UCantHideYer]

Missed PI

 

[Ryllini]

Think they would be happy with 1 conference win after last year

Their next 3 are Minnesota, Northwestern, and Rutgers. I'd be shocked if they went 3-0 there, but those aren't hopeless games for them.

 

[Mr. Tibbs]

ugh

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Oh boy, Luke is limping

 

[PasadenaIllini]

We are getting controlled up front by a mediocre team.

 

[Champaign88]

We are moving the ball fairly well so run a trick play to stall the drive. Seems about right.

 

[LFOD]

Alright Henry, show us what you got

 

[Da88]

It's about to get interesting.

 

[skyIdub]

Aaaaaaand we're back to questionable play calling?

 

[Curbelo Fanboy]

Barry has done some good stuff but that was an idiotic play call

 

[TheFlyingIllini1317]

Worst thing Valentine had a big hole there if it wasn't a flea flicker

 

[ChiTown]

You have to give Purdue some credit for making some defensive adjustments, and we need to adjust too.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Handles flicker at that time in the game was not a good call, we were starting to get a little momentum on the ground.

Aaaaaaand we're back to questionable play calling?

Flea flicker is a crazy play call when throwing a basic slant to Beatty is an automatic 30 yards today

 

[SuperMetroid]

Always has to be this way against these guys

 

[zentrails]

Oh boy, Luke is limping

Yep, sure hope he can shake that off obviously

 

[DeeIL89]

That flea flicker ain't it. Only up 13. Don't try to be cute with plays, Lunney.

Is that bad?

 

[DERV64]

Illinois will never be elite because a lot of the fan base excuses poor performances...if we want to be great fans need to demand excellence and light a fire under the programs arse. Fans play a part in success and our fan base needs to step up and demand better

 

[hooraybeer]

just win and move on please

1,900 yards given up before today. Aaron Henry STEALING from this university taking his salary. C'mon Bret. Fix this.

And Purdue has 396 yards so far this game with 10 minutes left in the game

 

[FloridaMan]

Is that bad?

Not as bad as UCLA........yet.

 

[dsg]

Need a 3 and out.

 

[illiram]

Someone call a timeout and fire Lunney and Henry....oh wait we are out of timeouts.

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Neither Bailey or Cox are out there...
