Game Thread: Illinois at Rutgers

Illininer · Oct 15, 2016

Nice read by Crouch. Score here and Rutgers will quit

Illininer · Oct 15, 2016

Would have liked a Td, but still made it a 3 score game.

breadman · Oct 15, 2016

Nice kick by the Mic.

SampsonRelpenk · Oct 15, 2016

I wonder if we can close this out without throwing another pass.

Illininer · Oct 15, 2016

Unfortunately Rutgers has figured out we can stop the run either

breadman · Oct 15, 2016

I'm probably late to the dance on this but what happened to Barton?

Illininer · Oct 15, 2016

Lol they mishandle the snap again on 4th down

SuperMetroid · Oct 15, 2016

Rutgers is fun bad

BillyBob1 · Oct 15, 2016

Snap wasn't that bad!

FT35 · Oct 15, 2016

LOL. Rutgers is just awful.

FT35 · Oct 15, 2016

Their Center is our best player on defense.

Illininer · Oct 15, 2016

How do they get that wide open?

Second and Chalmers · Oct 15, 2016

Our defense is horrendous at getting off blocks in space.

Illininer · Oct 15, 2016

Then about as telegraphed of a dump of screen play is set up and no one reacts.

I'm not sure who is working harder to lose this game . . . ..

UI2009 · Oct 15, 2016

I mean, we knew they'd score eventually, right? Why not against us

That's not fair. Rutgers game-losing effort thus far has been beyond reproach. We're yet to bobble a 4th down snap.

I think they were counting on it!

breadman · Oct 15, 2016

One first down at this point would be very good.

Oh well...

StateFarmCenter · Oct 15, 2016

Come on Rutgers, do something stupid again

breadman · Oct 15, 2016

If it's the 4th quarter, it's time for the collapse.

Illininer · Oct 15, 2016

Time to Illinois this game away.

Yes I think it's time for a 50 yard gain to be called back for an illegal formation.

The announcers have been all over it, but Crouch is playing hurt. You can see it in the way he carries his throwing shoulder, uses his non-dominant hand to put his helmet on and take it off, and we are not running the read option for him . . .
