Game Thread: Illinois vs Ohio State

[aaeismacgychel]

I really love Gus Johnson but somebody needs to tell him that the word "Illini" has only three syllables.

So long as he's screaming our name the rest of the game, he can use as many syllables as he pleases.

 

[NASchamp]

If only we could tackle.

This would be a good time to start.

 

[CDRUSN]

I don't ask for a lot from the Man above, but an OSU turnover on this next possession would make my day. It's going to take some game changers like that this half to give us a chance at the huge upset.

 

[biglug58]

We’ve been playing hard and tackling hard. I think OSU is due for a turnover soon

 

[FoundersClub]

Monster play here

 

[skyIdub]

Might be the play of the game right here.....

 

[mainlabs]

Time for a pick 6

 

[RIP_Chief_2003]

Why a time out!?!?

 

[aaeismacgychel]

FALSE START

 

[Illinifan533]

Bielema calls timeouts at the worst times

 

[pruman91]

TD AL !!!!!!......................The refs tried to stop us from the end zone , but we tricked those arse's...........20-10 Illini behind with 10:06 left in the 3rd qtr.............more vibes from earlier in our season , playing not so good in the first half but made some halftime adjustments AND ?????..................To be continued..............(hope Valentine is ok ).................

 

[aaeismacgychel]

WHAT?!?!?!?!?!? WHAT?!?!?!?!

 

[skyIdub]

Omg....they make a mistake and we bail them out. WE are Illinois.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Someone tell Gus Johnson there are only 3 syllables in Illini.

 

[abchew2]

Defense was confused, if you looked at the safety he had no idea what was going on, had to call that

 

[TentakilRex]

Remember there is no DPI in the B1G DBs....

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Better call the TO than get smoked on defense, we looked confused.

 

[BWBW]

Our defense wasn't ready. Hence TO.

 

[zentrails]

Omg....they make a mistake and we bail them out. WE are Illinois.

nope, our D was not ready for that play
We gotta play better than this if we want any chance at all, obviously

 

[skyIdub]

Better call the TO than get smoked on defense, we looked confused.

Actually that was the first play where OSU looked more confused than we did.

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

WHAT?!?!?!?!?!? WHAT?!?!?!?!

Yeah, he rightfully called a TO. There was one on one coverage on Smith. Someone was out of position. We didn't like the jump, but can't have a 45 yard TD pass either.

 

[purcy51]

That's twice I've seen #51 slap the lineman next to him after theyre set.

 

[TheodoreRex]

We usually come out of these timeouts and still look confused and give up a big play- prove me wrong defense

 

[azillini1]

We need a big TO. Not going to win without it

 

[skyIdub]
