Game Thread: Illinois at Ohio State

[TooHot4Tots]

Wtf playing too far off

 

[NASchamp]

Maybe don’t automatically give them the first down in your cushion??

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Just too easy.

 

[skyIdub]

7 yards to go....defender is 12 yards deep on a curl route. This defense can kmfa.

 

[Hereforit]

Press coverage, Bobby. Come on. Give ‘em a chance on 4th down there.

 

[TheChief4Life]

Need 7.
Play 10 yards off.

Why?!

 

[socalini]

No respect.

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Talk about disrespecting our D. Going for it on 4th and 7.

 

[illinoistradition]

Well we brought pressure on the 4th down which meant they had 1-on-1 coverage.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

in the 90s that hospital ball to Smith would’ve probably been the end of his career

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

I have such little faith in our D the more yards the offense has to get on third or fourth down.

 

[Marshall_Lucky]

Sayin is missing some throws and we gotta grab one if we want to have a chance

 

[Mr. Roberts]

We played like this we beat Duke by double digits.

 

[UCantHideYer]

Big mits!

 

[Ryllini]

Marked improvement from those first 2 from the defense

 

[SuperMetroid]

Holding on every single play

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Damn

 

[TooHot4Tots]

3 diff receivers smoking Clarke

 

[Hereforit]

Juice is playing way too far off and behind today. Take some chances. Got nothing to lose.

 

[SoILLini1]

Defense is embarrassing.

 

[New Creation]

Well I did bet the over today. OSU puts up at least 42 on this difference

 

[TheChief4Life]

We played like this we beat Duke by double digits.

What part of "this" do you mean?

 

[punchabove33]

I am not even upset… D actually playing better today than last 3 games

 

[NASchamp]

Man do these announcers love Ohio State and especially Jeremiah Smith. Literally cheering them on in the broadcast (“Woo!”)

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

Welp, to have a prayer at being in this one late, Houser and Co. simply need to score 7 here AND not leave enough time for our D to cough it right back up.
