Game Thread: Illinois vs Duke

[Second place is 1st loser]

That took BALLZ to call that play on 4th and 6 inches.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

[JKR]

[TheChief4Life]

What a call! Dixon is gonna set some records…

 

[biglug58]

Cahones!

 

[Ander1345]

You can tell Lunney took a lot from meeting with Ben Johnson

 

[eas23]

I think someone was open deep down the middle too.

 

[ChiTown]

That Houser boy is good!.

 

[fuddrules]

Kinda surprised they didn't have Anderson in for the fake handoff.

 

[AssemblyHallForever]

Gutsy. Lunney opening the playbook a little.

 

[CDRUSN]

Truly great balance between running and passing this year, with what appears to be a better offensive line in both run blocking and pass protection, helped somewhat by Houser's quick decision making and release. Plus, Houser to Dixon is something awesome to witness.

(hopefully the first of many this season!!!!!)

Barry Lunney rolling up to the next coaches meeting:

 

[Oracle21]

Wow big risk big reward. Conventional play is QB sneak, and Lunney goes for the home run and hits it

 

[Altuve27]

GREAT, GREAT play call. You gotta have some cajones to make that decision.

 

[Miles Leonard]

All set up by having success running the ball

 

[RML]

It really helped that we just lined up and ran that. No long thought process, no time for Duke to even think, hey, watch for the fake.

 

[Illinois_2_AZ]

The offense is really playing well. If the defense can get get a few sacks and stop the run, we will be in good shape!

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Great play design. Thought Hauser might’ve overthrown him, but that was picture perfect. Great call

 

[FloridaMan]

Come on D!!!! Build on last series!

 

[Mr. Tibbs]

Lunney is the best OC we’ve ever had - by far
