Game Thread: Illinois at Nebraska

[ChiefGritty]

It case anyone had forgotten, we're Illinois fans and we will never have nice things.

instead of being 24-21 its 31-14 because the receiver CANT CATCH the freaking ball!

 

[BWBW]

We may be better next year.

Did that pile up tackle on Reggie look cheap to anyone else? Looked like a lot of unnecessary rolling around by the defenders when I saw it live.

That has a high ankle sprain look to it. Not good.

Played a lot of years, that last little pull was intentional

One series at a time. Stay focused.

 

[MadSeason]

We have absolutely nothing going in our favor.

We shall see if there has been a change in culture on how they respond

 

[PROCK]

Wow zero players helping Corbin, falls to his feet with 2 players right behind him watching. I've noticed throughout the day the team not really celebrating with Bush on his early TD's either. Wonder if team chemistry is an issue. Anyway sucks to see the D so inept.

Yup.

 

[ChiefGritty]

One of those two holds was a garbage call. Lol.

Well they just gave us a make-up no call. Blatant hold on the blitzer there, and we get 15 tacked on.

Thanks zebras.

 

[IlliniNation1]

Luckily we got a few phantom calls

 

[Ramrod2010]

Made something out of nothing there

 

[IlliniNation1]

These refs are having s rough day. Missed calls everywhere.

 

[ChiefGritty]

He caught that

 

[Ramrod2010]

That is a catch

 

[MadSeason]

Thats a touch down. Left foot comes down

 

[pvaughn8]

I hope the call stands. Wouldn't hurt to run a bit more time off the clock

 

[Sal Iacuzzo]

thats a td

 

[MadSeason]

omg these guys are unbelievable

 

[pvaughn8]

Bad call and respectable catch though

 

[MadSeason]

Every week

 

[ChiefGritty]

Maybe he bobbled it with a foot out of bounds?

That is a correct application of the "indisputable visual evidence" standard, which of course only applies against Illinois.
