Game Thread: Illinois at Northwestern

[Michael Myers]

That's exactly right. Smith brings him in and then runs terrible plays for him.

Yup.
"Put in your running Qb and immediately run him. Twice." Classic direction

OH you wanted MISdirection.

 

[Michael Myers]

Oh good. Peters

 

[BWBW]

Fake punt

 

[Illini-Rule]

This is really hard to watch.

 

[LoveLovie]

HAYES!!!!!

 

[MoCoMdIllini]

Dual Threat Punter is a thing now.

 

[Illini-Rule]

I don't think Rod knows what misdirection is.

 

[Oskeefan]

stupid playcalling

 

[MaineIllini]

“I disagree with that call”

 

[Illini-Rule]

What the F are we doing?

 

[OrangeAndBlueBlooded]

53? On this type of day??

 

[Gregjacksonfan]

We look like a poorly coached HS team

 

[BWBW]

And the playcalling goes south.

Arrrrrr

 

[LoveLovie]

Peters missing everything

 

[Deep]

I'm sorry but that is stupid coaching. How you trying a 53 yard field goal in this weather. This is not the F'ing NFL lovie....

That is a loser mind set on 4th and 5

 

[tyrannosaurus scorus]

Kicking a field goal there? LOL

 

[Oskeefan]

where is the 5-8 yard patterns? only needed 5 yards. pathetic

 

[Deleted member 747277]

I hate Rod Smith's play calling so much

SO MUCH

 

[BWBW]

We look like a poorly coached HS team

You just insulted all HS teams throughout the country.

We do have an ace in the hole. Illini basketball at 7 pm.

NO. Our options our 15+ yards, 0 yards, or -7 yards. THATS IT.

that's all we really have

 

[Illiniguy13]

Hard not to laugh at that field goal attempt

 

[thehass]

If we are going to just run the ball then why not put IW in? At least he gives you more of running threat. Peters obviously isn't having a good passing day due to weather?

Did not see this before I posted mine. 100% agree. Believe IW can do some damage.
