[OB positive]

Why Valentine up the middle every time. Lunney and Henry both off their game today.

 

[CDRUSN]

That was refreshing by Anderson. You can tell he is salivating to capitalize on his limited running back opportunities this year. Good for you young man, love to see it.

 

[UCantHideYer]

JA with the big run. Great to see.

 

[derrick6]

Feagin runs like he doesn’t want to step on someone or something

 

[skyIdub]

Feagin churning the legs so much better than earlier this year!!! HIGH KNEES!!

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Feagin has run very well today. Very good performance

 

[FloridaMan]

[LFOD]

Feagin is running angry today

What we need are 'professional officials'... We have Professional Players now (based on the fact that they are paid), we've had supposedly professional coaches (that's their day job), yet we still have volunteer/part-time refs who are paid a stipend to do this important work... Higher pay usually equals higher efficiency and higher quality... Technology improvements are also needed. there are chips in the helmets, why not chips in the ball. Spotting the ball is outrageously bad, and determining if a player feet are in bounds or out. etc. etc.. But then fans wouldn't be able to complain about human beings making human judgments in a split second to determine outcomes... /s

I actually don't begrudge officials making a bad call live, I sure couldn't do it. Reviewing a play and then making a head scratching overturn of the call on the field is inexcusable for any level. Consistently bad spots are an issue as well. If they go both ways, not an issue.

Just saying with Anderson at FB, some I formation triple option would a cool thing in our NCAA playbooks

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Let's go to the Clement wide open in the endzone play

 

[derrick6]

Holding.

 

[dsg]

Crap

 

[FloridaMan]

Touch hold. Illini not allowed to touch defenders in the redzone. LOL. !!!!ing refs, I tell ya.

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

That is one another bad call.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Really?

 

[illini80]

Damn

 

[IlliniWatcher]

Holding...ugh

 

[Old.Edgy]

Freshmen DL Terps smashing through upperclassmen Illini linemen...

 

[aaeismacgychel]

That's a really really weak hold

 

[Homecoming 2019]

Another rogue holding call

 

[skyIdub]

Whatever. Literally every play.
