They said 2011 on the radio.
Allar has always felt extremely overhyped and overrated to me, but he's at least a serviceable game manager. But Kaliakmanis, he's been hyped since Day 1 and he's still one of the worst QBs I've ever seen when under any slight whiff of pressure. He's that kid on the playground who if he sees someone running at him from 10yds away gets scared and throws the ball like it's a grenade. And that's not even going into how he just floats deep balls, something that even D2 QBs don't do. The fact that he's been a B10 QB for 4 years just blows my mind.
Yes, college quarterbacks tend to miss throws. It just hasn’t seemed like it this year because we’ve played 4 of the top 10 quarterbacks in the country.
Only 4 more games of him being a Swiss army knive. Let's continue to have fun with this misdirection game leaving one on one chances with Dixon/Clement. While they do their things the sea shall part for our rbs to low key dominate the game
I'm not so sure you're on target here. On the other hand, we held them to 59 rushing yards. Our defense was stout in that department.
The fans have a big role to play in recruiting. Crowd size and energy encourages recruits to seriously consider Illinois. If we want a winner, we have to have skin in the game.
Good point. In addition, we see Luke in every game too. We see a different level of quarterback play in every game, often on both sides, so even an average QB starts to look poor by comparison.
While there has been a fair amount of criticism of the coaching and players, I think the fan base is the current weakest link of the program.
Both cohorts exist. Wonderers and nincompoops. The latter's commentary online would be applicable to some of our most vinegary vintages, but nowhere near appropriate for this year's.
Luke’s expression was priceless.Yeah, the NBC control room couldn't resist running that clip again, could they?
We are going to have to hit the portal hard. OL, defense and QB. Our backup DBs other than Rooks are an issue. Maybe moving Henry back to being a DB coach will help.
I have season tickets for the first time and it’s been frustrating as we have seats 1 and 2 and we are constantly having to stand up and let people in and out and it’s not fun. Why people constantly have to get up and go get whatever. It’s the same people that are getting up every 15 minutes. I left at halftime as I could not deal with it. Selling the last two games.
Aisle seats are a mixed blessing. You can come and go at will, but everybody in your row must get past you to reach the steps. You trade more traffic for easy access to the steps yourself.
Is this the crowd that yells at people to sit at basketball games?
