Game Thread: Illinois vs UAB

[illinoistradition]

Not a great play call. Would have preferred to punt and pin them. That said, Anderson stopped his feet on contact!

 

[Steelyunk]

You tackle the man with the ball.

 

[Indy Illini Fan]

This defense is just going to get trucked in conference play.

We might score 30 … We’re going to give up 40 …

 

[Thaillini22]

They've run 40 plays to our 15.

 

[Orangetool]

Bailey, man

 

[Juju]

I honestly wouldn't mind putting Cody Rhodes on the field and see if HE can stop the run...

 

[redwingillini11]

You have got to be kidding me

 

[TooHot4Tots]

Zero DL

 

[Marshall_Lucky]

Oh my goodness

 

[TheChief4Life]

This has not been a fun defensive experience…

Is it going to be tied at the half?

 

[Juju]

GMAFB!!!

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Just figure out how to win this one please.

 

[phats22]

......3rd and long conversion. some things havent changed

 

[Illini4Christ]

We need an interception.

I have seen absolutely ZERO improvements of that d from last year

 

[Get yourself a new map]

Man if these guys remain disciplined enough to stick with the run, we are in major trouble.

 

[Illinifan533]

Oh well. Make halftime adjustments and make this a laugher in the second half. I don't want another 2023 Toledo situation here (and knowing our luck this will be the best UAB team in years)

 

[LFOD]

Okay, we have ourselves a football game

 

[Indy Illini Fan]

Barna what the crap was that ?!?!??!

Soft !!!!!!
