Game Thread: Illinois vs Northwestern

[UDillini]

I’d bet 90% of qbs just run on that third down and not make the sideline throw to clement rolling away in these conditions

Nice drive Fighting Illini!! Northwestern can be pesky, let's keep our foot on the pedal & bury these guys!!!!

Keep your foot on their throat......dont let them breathe !

Nice response by the offense

I've played a lot of touch football in my youth in snow like what it looks like in Geis Memorial Stadium - but never on turf.

So far in the Illini game, the footing looks to be rather good despite the snow.

 

[BoiseBaller]

Defense. Do. Something.

 

[Marshall_Lucky]

Ack

 

[aaeismacgychel]

That hole was so wide I could've also run for 9

 

[Naborman88]

What was the flag?

 

[aaeismacgychel]

That's a hell of a throw. Whoa

 

[TooHot4Tots]

Defense is s joke.

 

[Mr. Tibbs]

swiss cheese D

 

[skyIdub]

Seriously...a 5th string nobody is going to run for 100 yards vs this defense.

Our inside backers are so weak. Bailey has to play safety and linebacker.

 

[and 69 others]

That hole was so wide I could've also run for 9

Anyone know why the penalty was added to the end of the run?

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

This defense needs an upgrade.

 

[JKR]

Unreal

 

[Marshall_Lucky]

D decided with 4 point lead they can phone in the rest of the game I guess

 

[GoodePodzMelendez]

We are letting a 4th string RB run all over us.

 

[RDS]

Any flags on NU yet?

[SuperMetroid]

Defense getting clowned yet again
