If Penn State winds up losing this game, Franklin's seat is going to go from warm to inferno level. The fans might not allow him to leave the field tonight

Our DB on that play fell down on the left side of the line. Wrong read.

And now we get a bad spot.
Why have we gotten away from the slants?
Burst through that f'r!
Their LB's are dropping back into coverage and are taking it away.
If they ran the ball every time and we called a slant every time-the score would be 42-49
We benefitted from some really poor coaching decisions by our opponent last week and here we benefit again. Brett has the Jedi mind-trick down pat.
Trying dominate PSU by running. 0 running yards 3rd quarter..

Illinois +17.5 bettors are PRAYING for this 3rd down conversion.
CANNOT go three and out here. Need this 1 yard.

Can we do a qb (up under center) sneak for the 1st?

Three slants and a Sluggo and we’re tied
Must score drive here by Illinois. Work your magic Lunney.
I think Lunney sometimes forgets Luke is freakin ELITE at throwing slants and we have 2 NFL caliber WRs that will win their 1 on 1s off the line

Anyone else notice the bad spot? The near official spotted it for a first, but went backwards as he towards the ball. He was closest to the ball. it should have been his spot.
