Game Thread: Illinois at Indiana

[Navy_illini]

I like going for it. Now the defense needs to step up

 

[BashCtIllini]

I've never seen Illinois dominate a game so clearly and still be at major risk to lose

 

[RML]

Not ideal. But our defensive has been playing well. Let’s hope it stays that way.

Except for long balls. Please, no!

 

[IlliniReb]

Let’s go D!

 

[eas23]

You play to win the game.

We didn't block like 3 different guys. That's execution, not play call.

 

[illinoistradition]

Ya'll were screaming for BB to get aggressive on 4th down with leads last season

100%. Can’t have it both ways folks. Be mad at the play call (and rightfully so), but don’t go against everything people hated on Bielema for last year.

Did you miss all the Zook years?

 

[Orangetool]

How do we not kick the FG there? POINTS, POINTS, POINTS....

 

[purcy51]

At least they have horrible field position

 

[IlliniFaninHoosierLand]

With our kicker nothing is a guarantee.

Even the kicker should be able to make basically a 20-25 yard FG.

 

[Illiniaaron]

They’re gonna get Brown killed

 

[Ramrod2010]

My goodness, Indinia just gave up there.

 

[superfan]

Defense baby.

 

[phats22]

D fense

 

[The Galloping Ghost]

Defense comes up huge once again. Thank goodness for them.

BB: "Our kicker is from Danville....and our defense is good."

 

[LFOD]

Nice! Defense is fired up

 

[KingWolf11]

When you’re D is playing like this 4 points is 10 not taking the field goal there is terrible

BB: "Our kicker is from Danville....and our defense is good."

 

[FloridaMan]

Can you imagine Mizzou fans being happy Walters left???? LOL We gotta put this one away this drive if we want to have a great season.

 

[Oskeefan]

Throw the ball. They were keying on Brown. Rollout toss.

or play action?

 

[CDRUSN]

Our Defense is just solid, and keeping us in this game. Let's eat up a lot of clock and end this drive with a TD. GO ILLINI!

 

[IlliniReb]

7 minute drive and a TD

 

[Ramrod2010]

Pretty sure Indinia (which my phone has now accepted as a word) only has about 60 yards in the 2nd half so far.

 

[HailtotheChief]

Those sweeps with Williams have been great keeping them honest on Chase. I would like to see a few of those with him getting it or not n run out this clock.
