Game Thread: Illinois vs Michigan State

[Illini1429]

Great drive Illini. Happy to see Memorial Stadium pretty full today!!!!

 

[Mr. Roberts]

What a nice run and use of his blocks. Wow!!!

 

[DaCHIEFnasty]

Didn’t some one say a wk ago that IW wasn’t quick???

 

[Joel Goodson]

cut down IW touches? smh

 

[Jimbo]

Huge!! Wait the customary 10 seconds for flags then celebrate.

That 3rd down stop on the QB run was a massive play that the crowd kind of ignored.

 

[eas23]

chase brown with some CRAZY blocking for that IW TD!

Bryant too.

 

[fatlard]

Today is good isaiah williams !

 

[Mr. Roberts]

That 3rd down stop on the QB run was a massive play that the crowd kind of ignored.

Probably because it looked like he made it.

 

[Miles Leonard]

Should be 14-0 but still a good start nonetheless

 

[RML]

(and nice for Tommy to get that TD to incompletion ratio back to normal (for him )). But that is the Williams we love!

The were deceived by the wind!

 

[MaineIllini]

I never said IW wasn’t quick but I did criticize his start/stop style. I take it back today- he read his blocks really well on that play

 

[Get yourself a new map]

3 absolutely bizarre spots by my count. Chase got to the two on first and goal. He got to the one on 3rd and goal. State takes over at the two.
Thorne likely picked that up and he’s marked a yard short.

That was as enjoyable and impressive of a touchdown as I’ve ever seen. Isaiah was absolutely playing with them with the hesi.

 

[AutoPoster 3000]

Williams 61 yard td after turnover on downs at the 2

 

[WeWillWhen]

As I said last week, the way to avoid poor red zone execution is to score from outside the red zone.

 

[Turpin & Tate in 2008!]

Probably because it looked like he made it.

They were probably looking at the yellow line.

 

[JimILL75]

Our short passing game may work well today as our receivers are better than the M State defense.

 

[dbeverly26]

Also got a nice block from the umpire lol

 

[FloridaMan]

QB Danny Devito

 

[PizzaHutParkingLot]

"...Illinois Quarterback Danny DeVito."

 

[eas23]

Probably because it looked like he made it.

Not in the stadium.

 

[dbeverly26]

Two weak flags on this drive

 

[skyIdub]

Officials. Absolutely ruining the game of football.
