Game Thread: Illinois vs Purdue

[Oracle21]

Let’s see Barnett at RB

 

[Curbelo Fanboy]

We don’t wake up 3-9 becomes a possibility

 

[TooHot4Tots]

Make quicker decision

 

[skyIdub]

Whatever.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

I don’t get how we can’t even have anyone open.

 

[TheodoreRex]

This is a flippin disaster... Houser had ALL DAY and that's what we get? This Purdue defense is atrocious and we have 0 points

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Getting hard to keep the language clean.

 

[IlliniKat91]

Purdue wants to win. We don't want to lose. Need to find the drive to win or it'll be an even longer afternoon

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Looks like we’re tipping something when running the ball. Purdue is either guessing correctly every single time or they know what we’re calling

 

[Oracle21]

Houser screwed that up. He had a wide open short crosser and didn’t throw it

 

[illinidarrin]

And Purdue is supposed have a worse defense than us.

 

[EmeraldCityIllini]

Do you really think your odds are less your offense gets 4th and 3 than your defense gets a stop?

 

[bleedorange and blue]

Very sad,good thing we have a great offense,,,oh wait

 

[eas23]

Houser screwed that up. He had a wide open short crosser and didn’t throw it

It was almost impossible not to get 3 yards on that play with the time he had and the way the rushers were spread out.

 

[New Creation]

We need to start going for it on 4th down. Our defense is trash, and the players are not very good. Need to just take all 4 downs to get 10 yards. The stats favor us.

 

[Iloveorangekoolaid]

1. We absolutely failed on the orange out from someone who’s currently sitting in the crowd
2. We are so bad so far this half

 

[Nuffievanhaven]

Wow

 

[Da88]

Getting very bad vibes.

 

[Epsilon]

If you are replying to me, I didn't mean just the offense play calling. I mean the whole thing, play calling, missed field goals and poor defense.

Nobody specifically there was just a mini pile-on.

 

[illinois_hustle]

I do not know why we are looking this bad. Purdue (Purdue!) is taking away all of our options?

HAVE TO scrap out a win somehow.

 

[Illinisam]

Located in 123. When we are on defense, I am the only person in this section actively making noise. 3rd down, we get some lukewarm participation.

Absolutely awful, any season ticket holders in 123 should be embarrassed.

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOO! MAKE SOME NOISE!!!!!!

Been thinking this way for years. We have no home field advantage because our fans don’t know when to cheer and make some noise. It’s like they are watching an opera or something. Very frustrating when you compare other fan bases to ours. Showing up is one thing, cheering is another. So frustrating!

 

[Illinois_2_AZ]

I had a strong feeling all week that we were going to play a lot better today. I don't know what's going on.
Maybe we just aren't very good.

 

[Clngpl94]

This isn't going so well...SMH

 

[Scoregasm]

Houser showing some poor trends now....missing open receivers and not much accuracy on deep balls.

 

[TheChief4Life]

Do you really think your odds are less your offense gets 4th and 3 than your defense gets a stop?

Yes? Only a fool would go for that there, regardless of team.
