Game Thread: Illinois vs Nebraska

[AutoPoster 3000]

I was thinking a six-minute drive would end this game although this wasn't what I had in mind.

Nebby clearly has to to on the edge here, right?

Step up boys!

Yes Ransom, that's right. Right for a touchdown.....

If I were Nebraska fan, I would be so p**ed by the play calling in the last minutes.

 

[PNWIllini]

That was too open

 

[illini80]

Got to have a first down.

 

[Butkus68]

Recover the onside and it’s over.

 

[Go Nats 88 Illini]

OMG - missed the extra point again. Nebraska cannot get out of their own way.

 

[HailChief89]

Wow! Period.

Quick recap of Nebby special teams.....

If I were Nebraska fan, I would be so p**ed by the play calling in the last minutes.

I was wondering if they didn't trust Martinez to throw.

"College special teams"

Recover the onside and it’s over.

Not quite as they still have three TOs left. We need a 1st down or two to close it out

 

[HailChief89]

Frost is a whiny lil guy isnt he

If I m about to be fired from 5 million dollar job. I m whining to!

 

[EyeoftheIllini]

There have been too many blown coverages, but that TD takes the cake.

 

[IlliniReb]

2 first downs needed with their TOs

 

[SuperMetroid]

 

[Go Nats 88 Illini]

One first down and we are Golden.

 

[skyIdub]

Play action....IW downfield to ice it.

 

[MaineIllini]

Thought we’d see onside kick

 

[illini80]

Nice!!

 

[Ramrod2010]

Given all the timeouts they have, kicking it deep is the right move.

 

[skyIdub]

Love Love.

Love is the Answer
