Game Thread: Illinois at Nebraska

[ChiefGritty]

AJ out.

Just got his wind knocked out it looked like.

 

[ChiefGritty]

Corbin's phone booth quicks are absurd

Apparently Tackling is optional

Catching is optional for our receivers. And apparently defense is optional for this game.

 

[Ramrod2010]

....aannnnddd of course. Looking good on your first drive? Here's an injury to your starting QB.

Phew, hopefully that doesn't affect him, also Corbin is amazing.

 

[IlliniEE13]

Corbin looks great at least

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

Big down here.

 

[bombayIllini]

TD Illini

 

[ChicagoIllini]

Big answer drive there!

 

[BWBW]

Nice

 

[bombayIllini]

Find them seams.

 

[Ramrod2010]

Very good response

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

Holy crap Neb, did you not read the scouting report on us? We like to run the ball.

I'm totally okay with this. Just surprised is all.

 

[ChiefGritty]

They are not strong tacklers. We just gotta get some stops somehow.

 

[SampsonRelpenk]

Love how AJ Bush jumps like a puppy over the goal line whenever possible

 

[IlliniEE13]

Probably not the best idea to lay out the head ref AJ...

 

[MaineIllini]

That’s better

 

[MrOizo]

YES. With the answer on the road. This team really is growing up. That alone is a step forward. Now defense, let's get it.

 

[Ramrod2010]

Anyone know what the O/U was for this game?

 

[ChiefGritty]

Anyone know what the O/U was for this game?

It actually dropped down below 70 in the end. Seems like a very hittable number.

 

[bombayIllini]

8 plays 76 yds.

 

[bombayIllini]

RC needs 4 yds for a cool 1000 for the year.

 

[IllinoisFanAtFSU]

As I said, y'all were jumping on the gloom and doom train way too early. Stay positive in this game and let's enjoy the young Illini's improvement!

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

Shoutout to special teams.

 

[IlliniEE13]

Defense is completely overmatched

Defense is completely overmatched

So is theirs...
