Indiana just missed a huge tackle.

You can take your pick among several reasons we are not B1G West Champions already.

We turned over the ball on downs inside the red zone THREE TIMES in the Michigan State game. That's one of them.

dumb dumb penalty.

With Spoon's interception, the Illini defense is now tied for the most team interceptions in NCAA Football - 18 INT's (tied with USC). I can remember years when the defense got 3 INT's all year. Thankful for this defense.

FWIW.....After their game today, both Michigan and OSU have 10 INTs each.

 

[LJ22]

Can we possibly self inflict more wounds?

 

[FloridaMan]

Did I mention we look unprepared????? What is going on with this team? Ridiculous right now.

 

[DocMorgan]

Defense looks confused

 

[Scoregasm]

Wtf?

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Finally a nice stop

 

[InDaAZ]

Walters putting himself into the Woody Hayes tripping zone…

 

[TheChief4Life]

NICE! But we can't keep waiting for NW to screw up. We need points!

 

[SuperMetroid]

Wow what a play by Bryant in coverage

 

[BWBW]

Wow

 

[illinidarrin]

well, the defense hasn't been great, but make a big play when they need it.

 

[CDRUSN]

El Sid!

[eas23]

What a play by Bryant

 

[RML]

Good lord, the nose these guys have for the ball is unbelievable.

 

[kyillinifan]

Now score.

 

[dsg]

Let's get a touchdown this time.

 

[UCantHideYer]

What a fantastic reaction to pick that! WTG Sid!

 

[LJ22]

Good: Purdue just punted.
Bad: It was an amazing punt.

 

[BWBW]

Let's score a TD before entering the red zone.

 

[SuperMetroid]

Indy survived the big play but are pinned on their own 1

 

[Scoregasm]

What a grab by Brown. Bryant put his arms up at just the right time.
