Well, I hope you do too!That was a heavyweight battle of two immensely talented FB teams........Rockem-Sockem bruising tackling with many big plays......
That was the best NON-Illini football game I have witnessed in a long time......kudos to georgia coming back after their loss to bama 37 days before....
I want the Illini to someday approach the level of play from tonight's game....Hope I live long enough...........
Go Illini.............
DAWGS!!!The ending was fun, especially to see Bama go down. I actually thought it was a bit sloppy. Both coaches played the conservative waiting game till the other team made a mistake. Some uncharacteristic penalties too. That āfumbleā by Georgia was a gift by the refs to Bama and the bulldogs got fired up. Iām glad they pulled it out.
In the end, the final score wasnāt too far off the UofG-Mich game (34-11 v 33-18 tonight)
I turned it off after the "fumble". To have the same play by both teams called opposite was too much. Recall that Georgia recovered the ball on the first play and ran it in for a touchdown on a very similar play. It was overturned and ruled an incomplete pass (correctly IMHO). Then to have the same thing ruled a fumble, again in favor of Bama, was more than I could handle.The ending was fun, especially to see Bama go down. I actually thought it was a bit sloppy.
