Game Thread: Illinois at Penn State

[pvaughn8]

I'm ready for the 3rd string QB

Ours, not theres.

Agreed. That or just keep rotating bp and art until one of them shows a pulse

 

[Ramrod2010]

If this drive doesn't start out with 7 straight runs.....I'm going to.....keep watching I guess.

It's not a blowout so you gotta stick with it, right?

 

[Illini-Rule]

How long do you keep trotting out a turnover machine that can hit open targets?

 

[Illiniwek66]

Is anyone else tired of the color announcers love fest for psu???

 

[illinoistradition]

While the record has not reflected it so far, this is why so many people have optimism for the future. After years of Lovie’s terrible defenses, it is fun to watch this defense play. It’s not predictable, they get pressure with 3 or 4, and they have stepped up with all these turnovers. Offense has a long way to go passing-wise, but it’s nice to see a competitive team on the road against a top-10 team.

Penn State wants to lose this game more than us. I like our chances.

I don't think I've witnessed a worse QB performance ever.

As long as he only hands off we are okay but you won't win many games one dimensional.

lol. Illinois football is a painful addiction.

 

[illiram11]

We could put an Oompa Loompa in at QB to just hold the ball, as long as they can dodge and has speed. We can do this with no more mistakes from our QB.

 

[skyIdub]

Seriously...if Art drops back to pass.....

 

[TheChief4Life]

I'm glad that we have actually discovered a blitz this year.

And it's been fairly effective, too!

 

[thehass]

Been holding my breath since Art held the ball out like a high school QB. Missed FG and back to square one. Do we have a 3rd string QB that is mobile? I would put them in. This is a winnable game with a mobile QB.

How much worse can Robinson be?

 

[Homecoming 2019]

Remember Tim Brasic?

I was thinking Todd Collins for the Bears in 2010 against the Panthers.

 

[Illinir1]

Let this be a lesson to all the " we beat Maryland and Purdue if we go for it on 4th down" crowd

Absolutely. This game is proving just hand it off to either #2 or #0 and you get those first downs.

 

[pruman91]

we have dodged more bullets than the Artful Dodger.....make them pay.....AND RUN THE DAMN BALL........

 

[ILL_INI]

Welp, passing down...

 

[oldman]

I don't think I've witnessed a worse QB performance ever.

Weren't you watching last weekend?

 

[Illinir1]

Oh oh. 3rd and long.

 

[BWBW]

What a gift

 

[TheChief4Life]

Like 3 turnovers terrible? Or some other terrible?

Good point

 

[skyIdub]

Weren't you watching last weekend?

Last weekend was the best QB performance of the year..........

 

[orange100]

Better to be lucky than good and JC we have been lucky this game.

 

[Ramrod2010]

Weren't you watching last weekend?

Thankfully nobody had to watch our offense last weekend. Except maybe the coaches.

 

[ILL_INI]

Oh, poor homer color commentator

 

[superfan]

Is that a live feed from Penn St fans in Happy Valley or paid announcers? Bellyaching about the PI call
