Lovie Ball! Where the haters at? It's all about players making plays at the end of the day! Illinois players are doing that the most right now which is why they're being the most successful right now... Lovie is a proven coach on the next level and had a decent season last year. He still has a lot more to progress to the level of his own and our fans expectations for sure, yet we need to stop with the hypocrisy as fans also. This team was at the bottom for a long long long time! It's always easier to

Can we chant Lovie together? Lovie, Lovie, Lovie! I-L-L

Umm... no. Dude still needs to go away. 1 quarter of good football does not excuse all the previous ineptitude of his coaching staff. I am beginning to suspect that you are either Lovie himself or Miles.

terrible play call on 3rd and short

I liked the call. Wish Barker would have held onto the ball

It's weird watching the OTHER team shoot themselves in the foot.

 

[Illini-Rule]

Caught a break there holding them to a field goal. Surprisingly getting a well officiated game for a change.

Robert Smith is saying it is basically Nebby's offense that is the problem instead of our D. Our D is not playing great but is playing better than earlier this year. Smith is giving excuses. I hate anything Ohio State!!! LOL

Chase runs very well! I like his vision!

 

[LoveLovie]

What a break getting that back...

 

[Fr8trn16]

Go Illini! Nice run! Lovie ball!

 

[CubsIlliniFan]

[CubsIlliniFan]

Bhe Bhe again with another great catch!!!

 

[MoCoMdIllini]

Time for another long scoring drive

How about a QUICK one instead?

 

[ILL_INI]

How did Penn State lose to these guys?

 

[BWBW]

WOW!

 

[Fr8trn16]

Bhe bhe! Him and Peters are going crazy!

 

[altenberger22]

Any chance Frost gets fired during the post-game press conference?

 

[EyeoftheIllini]

That pass to Bebe is why Peters started over IW. Hopefully IW gets to the point he can make that pass.
