Game Thread: Illinois at Washington

[tell it like it is]

At some point BB needs to make some hard decisions, we need the best we can get at our coordinator positions.

Baring some radical improvement, not sure why the decision is that hard.

Huge pickup on 3rd down

Good keep by Luke there

 

[Iamgroot]

Dixon you got to know where your blockers are on the field definitely cost us a couple of yards on that one

 

[Illini4Christ]

Luke is a stud.

 

[The Galloping Ghost]

Luke is in f'it, I'll do it myself mode.

 

[skyIdub]

Luke can save us!

 

[TheChief4Life]

I'm not saying that the announcers are Washington homers, necessarily, but I'm getting a little annoyed with the over the top verbal orgasm every time Washington tackles someone.

 

[BWBW]

Love the QB runs

 

[Illini4Christ]

Priestly is hungry he just had a pancake for breakfast.

 

[LFOD]

Wow, Altmyer !

 

[aaeismacgychel]

A long drive ending in a touchdown for us here would be just what the doctor ordered

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Expected more from this run game.

You can blame Henry, but we don’t have the NFL defensive players we had back when Walters was DC

It’s the coaches job to scheme to your players abilities as well as how you scout the opposition. He’s straight up not a good D coordinator. He’s a good defensive backs coach, not coordinator.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Luke looks dialed in today. Making good decisions

 

[Battle89]

Does Illinois defense know there is a game today!

Is there a game today? Not so far.

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

Do we want it to be 21-6? If the answer is no, this is 4-down territory … period.

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

The best game plan for the defense is a running game by the offense. Keep them off the field.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Have to get a TD here.

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

I'm not sure I'd love 21-10 either.

I have not understood Henry's defensive plans all year. Maybe he is luring Washington into a false sense of security. Probably not.

 

[Ryllini]

There will be a wheel route or something of like to Feagin today. It will be there against this D.

 

[FloridaMan]

This has to be a TD ending drive. No excuses.

 

[skyIdub]

We'd better get some edge in our game. Wash is playing with an edge.
