Game Thread: Illinois vs Penn State

[SuperMetroid]

Let’s maybe run the ball a little bit here, as a treat

 

[FlotownIllini]

PSU has had some very costly penalties. Big reason this is still a game, honestly.

 

[zentrails]

Is Luke hurt?

Got hit low earlier in the game and seems to be favoring one of his knees
Should have been a penalty according to the announcers

 

[Illiniam1984]

Are we saving Malik Elzy and Kenari Wilcher when we play against the west teams?

 

[TentakilRex]

This is like a really rich person trying to hand you $1Million...and you just keep saying no thanks.

I want Penn State too pay. Heck the neutrals might want it too.

 

[illiram]

Calling it now:

Illini 21
Penn St 16

Our D has locked down.

 

[TheChief4Life]

Okay… so everyone on PSU knew that play call …

 

[Illiniam1984]

What is that call Lunney?

 

[TheChief4Life]

Ugh…

 

[LJ22]

Calling it now:

Illini 21
Penn St 16

Our D has locked down.

Only if our D scores the next 14 points.

 

[BWBW]

Oh my

 

[skyIdub]

I can't believe they called that. YGTBFSM.

 

[TentakilRex]

It is easier to PI on offense in this outdated conference than defensive PI

 

[Jimbo]

Oooh, that was close.

 

[BWBW]

Turnover time. For us, of course.

 

[LFOD]

Time for a takeaway

 

[TentakilRex]

WTF was that

You’re being conservative. 42-16

 

[Jimbo]

loved seeing the quad picture. Brings back some memories.

 

[illinidarrin]

Well, at least the defense seems to be back somewhat....

 

[BZuppke]

Their QB will not beat us. Our offense will do that. Let’s kick !!!

 

[TentakilRex]

WTF was that

You can watch it every day on YouTube

What is that call Lunney?

Seriously trying to figure out what he called on that drive that anyone could possibly have a problem with.

We ran Love twice, the line got blown up on 3rd down, arguably converted a 3rd and long after the offsetting penalties, then ran a draw on 3rd and 22.

 

[Illiniaaron]

I don’t mind the play call on third and 22 but what was the point leaving the offense out there and not even trying to force an offsides?

Not to mention that draw almost went for a 1st down
