Martin O'Donnell's reaction on radio to that Pick 6 was awesome.

 

[Keisersose]

Boooom!!!’

 

[IlliniKat91]

PICK 6, YEAH BUDDY!

 

[UCantHideYer]

Those offensive converts to D know how to score

 

[ChiIllini75]

After the rough start it's awesome to see the fight back this team has today.

Wow did we flip the switch this 2nd quarter. That 1st quarter was some of the worst football we've played all season and this 2nd has been some of the best. Just craziness

[BDMAN]

This is a team we can be proud of.

I heard a stat once that a team scoring a defensive touchdown covers the spread 80% of the time. And we’re favored by 6. That means we’re sure to win, right?

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Wow, what a catch. That was incredible

 

[TheChief4Life]

Ugh… followed by this drive. Stop the bleeding please.

 

[BDMAN]

Well done my man, well done indeed!!!

 

[LJ22]

I wanted that pick six about 50 seconds later, unfortunately.

 

[illinidarrin]

Don't give it up before half.

 

[IlliniKat91]

No more prevent defense. Just defense, please. Prevent is how we shoot ourselves in the foot time and time again

[New Creation]

Good to see the D coming through for some points

 

[Illini John]

Four straight plays for 10 or more.

What a defense!

 

[BDMAN]

Someone please tell me why in the hell Henry puts them in a prevent defense instead of running the base defense that has served him well.

 

[TheChief4Life]

Is that a cstch and knee down ?

 

[illinidarrin]

Is that a cstch and knee down ?

yes

 

[eas23]

Strain, Tobe, and McCantos are all in the game. We're gonna give up passing yards.
