Game Thread: Illinois vs Michigan State

[Mr. Roberts]

That is an unbelievably terrible call.

 

[Bbuck21]

Horrible call on Chase. Not below the waist

 

[Jimbo]

That block looked fine, what gives?

 

[IMPE ALL STAR]

Well if they were faking it, they'd be back in after a play or two.

That’s what they want you to think.

 

[MoCoMdIllini]

Nice of them to give Tucker a mulligan on whether to take the penalty after we decided to kick it.

 

[IlliniForceOne]

Bit of Murphy’s Law going on right now.

 

[dbeverly26]

What a mess

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Terrible call, and I bet we regret not taking three points on that first drive.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

I don't think you're allowed to change accepting or declining a penalty after the opponent comes out on the field to kick a field goal.

 

[GoodePodzMelendez]

He hit him in the waist. How can that be below the knees?

 

[DaCHIEFnasty]

So Sparty has all day to make a decision on whether or not to accept the penalty? These refs are attrocious

 

[AutoPoster 3000]

10 yard penalty, blocking a player's waist

 

[IlliniFaninHoosierLand]

That’s what they want you to think.

This is you right now:

 

[ILLFAN67]

Bogus penalty!!!

Seems to be a recurring theme

 

[Epsilon]

It’s not surprising that MSU players did what they did last week. They are total spazzes.

 

[illini80]

Crap

 

[Mr. Roberts]

That block looked fine, what gives?

Warren's kid plays for MSU?

 

[Coop70]

So frustrating!

 

[illiram11]

Do better Big ten officials. Do better.

 

[Illini in Italy]

Lunney is getting out coached a little . . .

 

[JimILL75]

Sure looked to me like they declined the penalty, then saw we were going to kick a FG and they changed their mind. Can't do that.

 

[krushalot2005]

You can’t change your mind after declining a penalty, right?!?!

 

[fatlard]

A pick six would be great

 

[IlliniForceOne]

Just poor execution this half. Doing a lot of the little things wrong.

A lot of game to go. Let’s hope we see a different team in the second half.
