Game Thread: Illinois at Iowa

[TentakilRex]

Need to keep in a RB and/or TE in protection more

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Iowa has dialed up the energy on defense

 

[BRucks]

Roughing the punter

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Did they not run into the punter there?

 

[skyIdub]

I love how much we hate the refs today… in a game where Illinois only has two penalties, and they were both obvious.

I get it, it’s the missed calls we’re complaining about, but still.

It's fun!

 

[TheFlyingIllini1317]

Total roughing there!!! Dove into his plant leg, dangerous play.

 

[TheChief4Life]

There's gonna be a big pass interference call in the fourth quarter.

Yeah, ultimately, that will be the fear. Or
Some obscure “hiding the receiver” call on a 76 yd TD that will get called back.

I didn’t think the holding on Adams was that obvious. D-lineman grabbed him and pulled him to the ground

I see you’ve watched Iowa - Illinois play before. This is how it shall be written.

 

[Keisersose]

Seriously would like a replay on that punt

We are going to regret not getting a FG to end the half. We shouldn’t have went deep til we got in comfortable fg range.

Or another "no call" or picked up flag and our sideline loses it. Already have a sideline warning.

 

[DeonThomas]

There's gonna be a big pass interference call in the fourth quarter.

Agreed. And I still think we'll see an even bigger turnover as well.

The team that avoids that big mistake will win. (Odds favor Iowa based upon YTD performance.)

 

[UCantHideYer]

Can’t rough an Aussie!

 

[TheChief4Life]

I didn’t think the holding on Adams was that obvious. D-lineman grabbed him and pulled him to the ground

That will get called a hold 99/100 times.

 

[Jimbo]

Why not a turnover here?

 

[TheChief4Life]

That’s a tough route to cover, but man Taz is bad..

 

[squeezegame]

We never have this kind of home field advantage???

 

[skyIdub]

And that catch not quick reviewed like ours in the first quarter...

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Stop them here.

 

[eas23]

Is Paddock playing well? I feel like he is considering the opponent, but he's under 50% completion and has gotten away with a few poor throws.

 

[TheChief4Life]

Jesus…. They complete so many clutch throws…

 

[TheChief4Life]

Wow…

 

[aaeismacgychel]

We need to do more ball hawking drills for our defenders this offseason.

 

[SuperMetroid]

Iowa? Playing dirty?

 

[IlliniFaninHoosierLand]

That's huge for Taz not to get called on that.
