Game Thread: Illinois at Washington

[Coop70]

Feels like old times...

 

[Oracle21]

The interest level goes down though. With no playoff possibility, it’s basically just playing out the string against mediocre opponents

 

[the juiceman cometh]

I’ve been trying to stay off the fire Henry train but this is ridiculous.

Wasting a generational QB in Luke.

Yeah, I was actually encouraged v OSU.

But this has been an eye opening showing in the worst way possible.

 

[FloridaMan]

Maybe, but that doesn't get the team ready to play, or make tackles, or prevent general boneheaded mistakes. Every one of them is losable, full stop. Hopefully the last two games do not carry over to the next 4, but the circumstances surrounding those losses often do.

 

[TheodoreRex]

Are we trying to run the clock out????? Just taking our sweet time offensively- running the ball every play down 17- cool

 

[RDS]

Embarrassing performances are not just Ls, they are program building derailers. You build programs on belief.
BB owns two already this year in what many consider a pivotal year.

 

[PNWIllini]

That’s probably game … or is it

 

[Illini4life79]

I legitimately feel bad for our offense and Luke. If we had any sort of a competent defense we could have been special.

 

[NorthShoreIllini]

Epic failure by all involved. Utterly embarrassing

 

[Huggies5]

I don't have confidence in Henry as the D coordinator at all. It's really bad when I'm sitting at home questioning his moves then hear the announcers question the same things. I'm so jealous of Indiana right now.

 

[phats22]

targeting? how is that not reviewed

 

[Indy Illini Fan]

Am I the lone one who first thought that was Hamer?

And here I thought the day couldn’t get any worse …

 

[Iamgroot]

While hopefully Henry will be gone hopefully Bart Miller will be gone as well

 

[CDRUSN]

Looks like a classic targeting hit to me.

 

[purcy51]

HOW IS THAT NOT TARGETING???

 

[skyIdub]

And if that isn’t targeting just f%#k right off.

 

[Indy Illini Fan]

uhhhhh targeting ?????

That’s freaking textbook targeting !!!!!!

 

[NoRival]

Targeting?

 

[ChicagoIllini]

Helmet to helmet. Probably should have been targeting.

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Why did we go with Laughery the whole way instead of Valentine?

 

[CoachHooleyHoo]

What are they booing for? Clear roughing the passer. I'm hating Washington even more.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Well, we got a helmet to helmet on the qb call...

 

[TheodoreRex]

WHY ARE WE RUNNING THE BALL DOWN 18?????????????????????????????

 

[DeeAndDWill]

These continued first down runs are definitely cool.

 

[spillini]

He hit Luke head first guys
