Defense promptly made me eat my words and got back to back stops... let's get another one!

If Bush can hit some throws on slants and screens, the Illini offense might have a huge day.

If you squint, we almost look like a competent football team.

Which isn't to say we're playing especially WELL defensively, but when someone is losing their one-on-one matchup, someone else is fighting loose and closing on the ballcarrier. You're not much of a D when 6-7 yard runs are progress, but they are for us. Those were house calls against Maryland.

We cannot hold the LOS at all. All 4 of our down linemen were on the ground at the 5yd line on that score.

Kick off return for a TD would be nice.

I just hope we can maintain the lead into the locker room at the half.

Well at least there is one definite take-a-away from this game. We are NOT the worst defense in D1 football.
