Game Thread: Illinois vs Indiana

[TheChief4Life]

Seems very empty for only 8 minutes to kickoff. Hoping it fills up fast!

 

[TheChief4Life]

Oh god…. The pre-game I-L-Ls are just an embarrassment….

She’s trying…

 

[Ramrod2010]

That's not a great showing...

 

[TheChief4Life]

Oh Jesus… already !!!!-talking between the two teams as they are both running out of a tunnel at the same time (also a terrible set up). I have a feeling there are going to be a lot of personal fouls this game…

It’s really important for everyone to understand that there isn’t any doubt. Even if Paddock goes 30-30 with 8 TDs, Altmyer is starting next week if available.

Paddock wouldn't be available at that point. He'd be suiting up for the Bears.

 

[Illiniaaron]

Yay! Matt Millen….again….

 

[eas23]

That's a lot of orange.

 

[Jimbo]

Bench him! Bad throw.

I get a bad feeling that Paddock is gonna ball out today and then we have to deal with a completely unnecessary QB controversy going into Iowa game.

A classic win/win/lose/lose/poop situation.

If that's your bad feeling about this game, I will take it every single time! Just win!

 

[CentralILLini]

wheres everybody at?

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

That didn't instill confidence.

 

[Marshall_Lucky]

Well that wasn't the first drive we wanted

 

[Nikethreadguysm]

and the crowd goes mild

 

[thehass]

Sheesh.

 

[eas23]

I swear between Illinois and the Bears, they've received the opening kickoff like 15 of 18 times this year.

 

[illinidarrin]

Is this going to be a 9-6 score today?

I'll just put this out there and save someone else the trouble:

I guess they realized they couldn’t spell Indiana so they just went with Hoosiers on their jerseys.

 

[LFOD]

I like that start!

 

[Marshall_Lucky]

First to 3 wins?

 

[JimILL75]

Great start for our D, we are going to need that

 

[pvaughn8]

Thanks defense!

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Indiana's qb saw Newton coming on that screen and was like "eff this, I didn't go to college to get killed"

 

[Nikethreadguysm]

Hey free yardage! Lol not a heads up special teams play by IU there.

 

[LFOD]

I hope it’s a Feagin/Love show on offense today.
