Game Thread: Illinois vs Penn State

[TentakilRex]

Barry Lunney needs his "Ryan Walters after the 2021 Virginia game" epiphany moment pronto.

Starting to have flashbacks of the 9OT game

 

[Illiniam1984]

Williams has to catch that.

 

[Coop70]

Starting to feel like a moral victory is the best we can expect today.

 

[IlliniUnited]

Might want to consider putting Paddock in

 

[Jimbo]

Really need a defensive score.

 

[purcy51]

Really need a defensive score.

From your lips to God's ears.

 

[CDRUSN]

Our defense matches up so much better with the immobile Big 10 qbs than against the fast, agile ones we faced the last 2 games. And, they are really playing with pride today, with much crisper angles and tackling.

I want a similar final result

 

[TheChief4Life]

We need a turnover in the worst of ways…

 

[Ryllini]

Should we test the PSU defense next time out and see if they want to even defend the barge offense

Altmyer just stood in against the rush and threw a great ball on 3rd and long.

 

[TheChief4Life]

Just bad. I hate this.

 

[TentakilRex]

Defense running out of gas

 

[SuperMetroid]

How is that a catch?

 

[LoveLovie]

Absolutely schooled

 

[Illiniaaron]

Illini D wearing down now

 

[LJ22]

Nothing to lose, let's open it up on offense. Want to see Isaiah throw the ball.

 

[TheChief4Life]

There’s going to be major questions about the offense this week. And if not, then it starts falling on Bret.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Good play, with no offense there is no way for the D to keep shutting them out.

 

[Illini John]

Game.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Turn out the lights, the party's over.

 

[Illiniaaron]

Well that about does it.

 

[IlliniUnited]

Altmyer just stood in against the rush and threw a great ball on 3rd and long.

Debatable but the offense needs a spark.

lunney is still suspect
