BRING OUT THE BARGE

That's our only chance on offense, and hope Brown can break one.

 

[GoodePodzMelendez]

LaPorta and Leshon Williams are both from Illinois. Neither held offers to Illinois.

Thanks Lovie LOL

I’m sorry, but Sitkowski is just horrible. My ceiling for him is “don’t throw a back breaking pick six”.

 

[JLL48]

Throw throw throw throw throw.....

Would be nice if we had a decent RB, then we’d be able to run a couple times.

 

[JJHUI79]

Martin also said that our punter has to get the punt off quicker. That last one was waaaay too close..

 

[BDMAN]

If cannot execute any of the pass plays, we will not win this game he is killing us with the miss throws I know he is trying his best but comon

Art missed a 5 yard throw to Chase.

Here’s the problem. It’s going to be all 3 and outs and eventually the defense is going to get worn down by that. Our second half time of possession is going to be like a minute forty seconds.

Unless they keep going three and out too?

lol spoon made the tackle anyway

 

[IlliniForceOne]

First to 9 wins?

 

[Ramrod2010]

Penalty crushed any chance of that drive.

Also, Hugh has to get that kick off quicker. They are going to block one at this rate.

Use that against them? Pass out of a fake punt?

It’s killing me to watch us fail to connect on “high percentage” throws. We’re not even thinking about a vertical passing game.

 

[dbeverly26]

Ok, let’s try to hold ‘em, guys

 

[SuperMetroid]

Come on offense. Just one drive.

 

[The Galloping Ghost]

The defense is playing its butt off. Our offense needs to give them a break with a sustained drive and some friggin' points.

Jake Butt is a pretty solid announcer for a 27 year old.

The sack machine is running on all cylinders tonight!

Good field position let’s go!

 

[BDMAN]

Please offense give us 3 1st downs and then a TD, 7 points would be huge in this game

First to 9 wins?

Or 8?

 

[Scoregasm]

84 is way faster than Syd. Need to get a faster DB on him.
