Game Thread: Illinois vs Ohio State

This is where this turns into a blowout I fear. Offense lost this game.
We’re out of gas on defense.
Luke back to his bad habits- holds the ball too long, fumble.. He needs to flush this 
of a game down the flipping toilet.
4 TO's by the offense today, just inexcusable

which is disappointing given the experienced players we are fielding
Refs protecting the spread now
Offense just didn’t show up today.
So Smith can just grab Clarke's face mask for 5 seconds? That's ok? Offsetting, huh?
Just a bummer considering that we have played well but had such bad turnovers and that punt.

Yeah. That’s the worst part of this. Seems that we need better position coaching.

-3 turnover margin was never gonna get it done (although one was a screw job)
That replay was awful, that was not offsetting - another awful call.
I rarely complain about refs, but that was crazy. Not like Clarke could walk away.
It seems to be the only thing holding us back at this point.
I don't get it. Clarke had his jersey holding him off, but that's holding another player's face mask for seconds and jerking it. That could easily be an ejection
Obviously game isn’t over, but it looks bleak.
Who would have thought that we’d say we lost by 17+, and it wasn’t really the defense that cost us…

3 turnovers and punter knee will be 24 points
No, not /s. That was in NO WAY an offsetting penalty. Let me guess, you are a ref?
Hard to against such a good defense
