Game Thread: Illinois at Purdue

[skyIdub]

do you run here or throw ?

Yes.

 

[UCantHideYer]

Purdue would not expect a flea flicker here. Let’s do it.

For those saying it's a 3 score game with a field goal, it only makes it 16pts. 2TDs with 2 2pt conversion. Kicking the ball off up 16 vs giving the ball on their own 5 with the ball up 13 is probably closer to a 50/50 call than one would think, especially when the opposing team does not have a good QB

Worse:

Illinois defensive effort

agree
I would have kicked

but I hated the play we ran

 

[HailtotheChief]

66, specifically, messed up by not blocking his man or anyone else in a black jersey. But he was far from the only one.

Did you see the handcuff? Feagin was way late gett7 g the ball, slowed way down. The D line knows uts likely a run and being that slow on the hand off your not likely to get it. Can't blame the line.

Lunney determined to keep LA from getting 400 today

It looks that way truthfully if lunney wasn't so passive this Luke would have and should of gotten at least 450-500 yards this game but lunney has called run after run this 2nd half whether were getting 3 yard gain or a 2 yard loss just not good play calling the 2nd half on offense

run, FG puts the game away minus a miracle

 

[Retro62]

Its sad how many people think that a FG would have made it a 3 score game.

I think it’s that most doubted giving up two TDs and two 2 pt. conversions.

Situational football…

 

[SemperFiIllini]

Thank you for the dropped passes today Purdue. We needed all of em

 

[Lysol623]

Folks, 16 points can be scored with two touchdowns.

Valentine needs 8 rushing yards to get a hondo, and Luke needs 10 passing to reach 400. Hoping for both.

I did. But it got made and 66's man blew it up. And, yes, I can blame the line. They deserve a ton of it.

 

[Mr. Tibbs]

I would have passed it there at 3rd & 5

Gotta think in terms of probabilities

 

[skyIdub]

Smh

[Ryllini]

Normally you’d call a timeout with a second there, but we’ve been out of those for the last 21 minutes of game clock

 

[Mr. Tibbs]

Olano=$

 

[TheChief4Life]

Olano special teams player of the week? Beatty offensive?

 

[GraingerDanger]

Good enough for today

 

[BrimfieldBomber]

Glad we got to see last week what the team can do when they need to execute late.

Sure as hell wasnt the 4th Q today. Lunney tripping over himself.

 

[Lysol623]

Gotta think in terms of probabilities

I think we should have kicked the fg to force them to need two TD's and two 2 points conversions. The probability is irrevelant, because if they score 8 on the first touchdown, they are in position to tie if they score again.
