    Week 5 Games

    Penn State sucks. Some of the runs that N.W. is getting, my granpa could run through and he is dead.

    Pregame: Illinois vs Purdue, Saturday, October 3rd, 3:15pm CT, BTN

    Duke should be ranked but they are not. No respect. I agree, our offense is really really good and we will put up some points. I really like Hauser. If we are healthy, I could see us putting up 50 against a BIG opponent before the season is over.

    Ohio State 42, Illinois 19 Postgame

    Patricia didn't have anything to write home about either. They have to be boiling in some stew. 460 yards. We should have put up more points. Outside of Mannings 4th quarter in 110 degree heat, no one has moved the ball like that against them in a long time.

    DC Bobby Hauck out at Illinois

    The announcers were so busy praising O. State on the touchdown when we only had 9 players, they didn't even notice it. Makes you sick! They were to busy praising the offensive line for Ohio State. Look this may be another subject altogether but I gotta put this in. At times, we moved the...

    Our offense can score on anybody. Our defense can't keep anybody from scoring. Our special teams are decent. There is an old song that says 2 out of 3 aint bad. That song does not apply here. For you old timers. Was that meatloaf?

    Ohio State 42, Illinois 19 Postgame

    I think some of us need to chill a little. Do I like the Defense? Stupid question. Can it be fixed moderately enough to get us to 7-8 wins. I think so. Remembering some previous coaches from the last 15 years when we had neither an offense or a defense and 49-0 was on the platter for a day...

    Would rather win but I will take this if need be. Any wider spread and we are who they thought we are.

    Pregame: Illinois at Ohio State, Saturday, September 26th, 11:00am CT, FOX

    They will not be overconfident. I believe they are going to try to run the ball down our throat. They have had some concerns there. There coaches have respect for Brett and this is league play. That is what I have gathered in their press conference this week which I watched. He wants to win...

    So besides Brown, who else is impressing to the point that key minutes could be an option?

    I see this too. He could make a mistake or two but if he is getting p/t he could make the difference in games with N.W. and M. State which are much better than we thought. Unfortuntely, he may be gone next year.

    We had some stupid mistakes last year and still played them fairly well. I think we blow their cover. Give me 44-21

    State Farm Center

    I don't think Duke fans will be complaining this year when we roll into Cameron. We beat them there once. We can do it again.

    Ohio State game (Sept. 26th): 11:00am CT, FOX

    Does anyone here actually think O. State will punt in this game?

    Bilemna has done a good job with what he has to work with. While I agree Duke should have been a win, he seems to pull more rabbits out of his hat than not. Hopefully we can win big this week and play respectfully the following. I think everyone knows who will win that game. I would never...
