Game Thread: Illinois vs Northwestern

[SuperMetroid]

Started the season as a dark horse CFP team. Ending it in a slap fight with a bad NU team to avoid playing in Detroit

 

[RDS]

7. Now

 

[UCantHideYer]

Love to see a sustained drive, but man it’s not in our repertoire. Can’t recall one when we needed one.

 

[GoodePodzMelendez]

The only good thing about this game is that we don’t need to win it to become bowl eligible.

8-5 is better than 7-6

 

[ChiTown]

Believes he can stop our offense or that we will stop our offense. Might be right both ways.

We’re doing such a great job stopping our own offense,I don’t think we need any help.

 

[JKR]

Wheredid they kick from?

 

[Juju]

Or return it for a touchdown. I'm cool with that.

I like this one better.

The second sentence is accurate

 

[MoCoMdIllini]

We're going to miss Dylan Rosiek back there. Man that tackle on NU's converted TE was pristine.

 

[Champaign88]

I’d rather have Valentine or Laughery in on this drive than Feagin.

 

[blife]

Shocking 1st down run btwn the tackles for 1 yard

 

[Naborman88]

Let’s go Luke

 

[Leelnd]

Missed wide open clement

 

[TheodoreRex]

Clement was WIDE open

 

[OskeeLoyalty]

Luke... love ya bud but you hold onto the ball and stare down a target like you have 30 secs to make up your mind

 

[RDS]

Brutal

 

[IlliniMilkMan]

Missed wide open clement

What was that? Wasn't even close.

 

[Leelnd]

I don't fing undersrand

 

[TentakilRex]

Tempting fate too much

 

[TheChief4Life]

 

[aaeismacgychel]

That's wild how fast the refs set that ball. Luke had the ball and wasn't even close to being on the field yet

 

[FloridaMan]

Danger time. What a program
