Oof these cowbells are going to be hard to handle for 3 hours.
Game Thread: Illinois vs Mississippi State

I like we came out passing.
Here they just sound like high pitched cheering. I’m used to sitting right next to the away team fans all season anyway, so this is nothing…
It does not matter who we play, we are never the fan favorite by the broadcasters.Safe to say this will be a Miss St broadcast? Haven't heard anything except, "we'll talk about that later" in reference to our players opting out... it's kinda pathetic...
No flag? We’re not in Big Ten land anymore!

Really nice start from the Defense. Now, we need to put together a nice, long drive for a TD.
Good defense early. Like that we're getting pressure on their QB. If we can get some movement on offense, I think we can have a shot in this one despite all the key players we have out.

I'm listening to the Illini radio team.
High level of difficulty on that catch by Reiman.
Good hard run by Love. Big 3rd down pick up.
The cow bell thing seems .. meh. Annoying, yes, but they seem to be doing it instead of cheering. Perhaps if there are 70,000 of them, its more impressive.
It may be a Miss St broadcast so long as it is an Illini victo
Nice methodical drive here. Mixing pass and run. Time consuming.
My wife and I were just talking about this. I have to imagine that in their home stadium, it’s pretty obnoxious and, unfortunately awesome.

Yeah. I can't imagine a neutral fan of college football ever voluntarily watching a Mississippi State game.
I wonder if their bowl games tend to get the lowest TV ratings - if they don't, they should.
I would absolutely skip watching this game if Illinois wasn't playing.
Really want Hightower back next year. Liked our 4 receivers this year.
Oof... That was not a good time for a false start.
