Game Thread: Illinois vs Purdue

[ChiTown]

I went and bought my 2nd vodka drink right about here. I NEVER drink during the game!

Am just drinking my bourbon right out of the bottle.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

You ought to be here in person…

Got tickets to Oregon.

 

[bleedorange and blue]

It's almost beyond words. Big party last night? Bad drugs? These guys are paid to preform like this?

What is Lunney doing calling for a run into the strength of the D on 3td down? That seems to be the call a lot this year, and it almost always gets stuffed. We use a playbook, let's get off Page 1. If we lose to a pathetic Purdue team, the entire team, coaches especially, needs to reevaluate exactly what they are doing. It ain't exactly college level football.

Illini are doing more damage to livers today than Hannibal Lecter.

 

[Marshall_Lucky]

Inguess the decision to go for it there was because we need more NIL right?

 

[WWWWRocU]

Did anyone not expect that Anderson run?

And then he thought he found a hole through#72's body!!

 

[Bootheel Illini]

Down 9. Need a FG. Is there a COACH for counting points??????

 

[Geno33]

Just when you think you have an offense this game happens

Brett is going from having his statue built to making pans of lasagna in the cafeteria quicker than you can say chief.

 

[New Creation]

So they punt when they are suppose to go for it, and go for it when we should be taking the points…

What has happened to this coaching staff from with in. Chemistry is off by a mile today.

 

[IlliniKat91]

Hope you are ok.

I was in good enough health to turn on the game. How I'm feeling now though...

(I'm okay. Nothing some ice and elevation can't fix)

 

[BoiseBaller]

3 straight runs up the middle?

Lunney gonna Lunney.

 

[IllinifaninFL]

Can anyone give me a good reason why we dont just kick the field goal there?

 

[Juju]

Purdue is the weakest opponent we have left, and by a good margin. If this is how we play against THEM, we're not winning another game this season. What a show...

 

[RockfordIllini]

I would get it if Anderson got 2 and it’s 4th and 1.

4th and 4 you have to kick.

The way they’ve controlled the clock we may not get 2 more possessions.

 

[altgeld88]

You ought to be here in person…

Thoughts and prayers.

This is an abdication of coaching leadership.

 

[TheFlyingIllini1317]

Sold out crowd, tons of season tickets holders, great momentum and about to piss it all away. Plz win this game 2024 style

 

[spotter]

The hate is flowing again. Nearing Palpatine levels.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

I bet the recruit prospects are impressed.

I mean if they’re like “yeah I could totally start on this team as a freshman” then I guess this is good. Otherwise, my lord is this bad

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Barring some crazy turnaround this season is a huge step back, and really has had some bizarre coaching decisions.

 

[Juju]

Sorry Bert that was not an educated play at all. You have to take the 3?

Imo, he's coaching more like an Ernie right now.
