Game Thread: Illinois at Maryland

Last 2 possessions we had great field position and can't do anything with it. Mark that down.

Aussie Aussie Aussie! Nice punt!

Oy, Oy, Oy!

 

[Mr. Roberts]

We will get aggressive on offense again only after we give up the lead.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Hell of a punt, but we're playing with a lot of fire here and just hoping we don't get torched

 

[BWBW]

Bring it for a safety!

 

[DeonThomas]

dumb play call there

I'd have to argue that designed runs for Luke (fake hand-offs to RB's) are just about our best plays so far this season.

 

[TentakilRex]

Heck Lunney consider an outside run or a HB screen when Laughery is in

 

[TheChief4Life]

I can't tell if I should be optimistic yet... or worry about a 96 yard, 9 minute drive here...

D can't have too much left in the tank

 

[socalini]

I’m no football genius, but should we maybe not run it up the middle on almost every first down? And maybe run to the outside once in a while.

 

[cardini99]

still giving up chunks wayyy too easy, and that 3rd and 2 run we weren't even set on defense when they snapped the ball

 

[Marshall_Lucky]

Noooo

 

[TheChief4Life]

Jesus…

 

[Illini IndyCar Fan]

We look gassed

 

[Illiniaaron]

So much for pinning them in deep.

 

[Coop70]

Well........

we look so good in the presumably scripted plays, then when Lunney has to call plays, it falls apart.

 

[FloridaMan]

Need a turnover in the worst way

 

[TheChief4Life]

We need a turnover in the worst of ways…

 

[Illini IndyCar Fan]

YEAH! GOT EM!

 

[BWBW]

Nice sack

 

[FloridaMan]

Great stop!

 

[TheChief4Life]

Yeaaaah! Big sack!

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Seth Coleman having a hell of a game today

 

[Mr. Roberts]

We apparently are not allowed to involve tight ends. We are not allowed to run outside the tackles. We are not allowed to screen. We are not allowed a rolling pocket. Prove me wrong.
