I don't understand how some of these bench players even get a chance to make the mistakes they do. They're way worst than our starters who have shown a propensity to not secure the ball both while receiving it and carrying it.

We will win this game. Gut feeling after that scrum going into the locker rooms.

This is as bad as it was good last week. Is Illinois coached properly in the basics?

Losing is one thing. Losing because we cannot complete basic football gimme plays makes me sad to be an Illinois fan.
Our D did force 2 punts in the 2nd qtr, sadly for them they had to march right back out there because we couldn't field the DAMN punt

This better be some absurdly inspirational half-time speech.
What's an inspirational Lovie Smith speech sound like?

Given the LBs and DBs....the coaches are trying to make chicken salad out of.....
At some point, you need to actually recruit the full chicken salad and not try to make it on the fly. Much easier and cleaner going that route.

Does that count as a handoff?

We need to have open tryouts to see who can catch the f------ing ball
I feel for AJ Bush man. He is having a great game sans his fumble, and the WRs are butchering him. That and the dropped punts taking the ball out of his hands.
Have we ever played a power conference team that's played this badly against us? Have we ever benefited from such ineptitude?
Sure hope we have some new WR’s coming in next year. I’d like to trade in this entire group.
Pretty much the same for our DB’s.

4th and 3 and that almost went to the house
We're right back to being a pathetic joke. All the hope that sprung last week is gone.....
Haha, Nebraska has "QED" on one of their random picture play boards. If even 10 total players on both teams know what that means I'd be shocked
