Game Thread: Illinois vs Northwestern

[pruman91]

Ok...this is definitely a simulation.

 

[hiberto]

Everyone complaining about the two point conversion/one point, you do realize that was the right call at that time, right?

yes

 

[PopChampaign]

Go for it, get it over with

 

[eas23]

Paddock had to go through his progressions on the last INT, but still odd that throw went to Griffin Moore.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Needed Isaiah to try picking that one up. Going out 2 yds short is big

 

[New Creation]

We have given up a lot of points to Purdue, Indiana, NW. all scored 40 plus points on us… not to even bring up Penn state and Kansas 40 point plus games…. How can Bret not make a change some where on defensive?

 

[HailtotheChief]

Ugh....get the first down Isiah we have 3 tos

 

[TheChief4Life]

It's the right thing to do with a normal team

Good point

 

[SuperMetroid]

Season right here

 

[superfan]

I’m sorry but it’s pretty embarrassing to lose to Northwestern with this team….

Copy paste that for a few other games this season but yeah

 

[Keisersose]

Never mind I’m so frustrated.

 

[skyIdub]

Sigh

 

[Illini John]

After decades and decades of watching Illinois football, is it just me or does it seem like every season ends with a Northwestern game just like this?

 

[LFOD]

Okay, the season is coming to a not very merciful end.

 

[NASchamp]

Yeah sorry. This is embarrassing.

 

[illinidarrin]

And just getting FG's hurt as well.

 

[PopChampaign]

He could have ran

 

[WeWillWhen]

 

[aaeismacgychel]

And that's where you miss Luke unfortunately

 

[Leelnd]

Altmeyer would have rushed for 1st

 

[D1959]

Why does he never run?

 

[hiberto]

missing Luke's mobility at times

 

[Illiniaaron]

Can’t just hold the ball that long goodness

 

[BashCtIllini]

He had his C to lead the way if he just ran the damn ball

This team was elite and giving games away this year.
