Game Thread: Illinois vs South Carolina

[TonyClifton]

Referees bet the under on 1st quarter points

 

[CDRUSN]

Well, the refs took another touchdown score off the board, unless this gets reviewed.

Refs must have big money on SC this is absurd

 

[foby]

I just came here to say that announcers are horrible at looking at plays and seeing the important details.

That is all.

WIN IT BOYS!

 

[Ryllini]

It will be a TD

 

[purcy51]

We better be lining up f9r the extra pt after commercial

 

[Ander1345]

It's 14-3 right???? RIGHT???

What a strange day. I’m rooting FOR Michigan and against these jamokes like they’re michigan.

 

[Gregjacksonfan]

I think the fix is in. This is crazy

 

[eas23]

Let's not overlook Luke on that play. Incredible stuff.

Let's play ball gentlemen

Announcer just said, "Don't believe your lying eyes. from that angle can't really tell if that was a touchdown."

People getting married before kicking the extra point?

 

[abchew2]

Ref was right there too! No excuse for missing a broken plane that is so clear

 

[Keisersose]

Seriously every spot for us is short and they won’t call a freakin TD when we score one. I can’t believe they even had to bring the chains out for the 1st down on the FB dive

 

[JimILL75]

Touchdown for sure

 

[Illinois_2_AZ]

Between the refs and the one-sided announcers, this is not very enjoyable so far.

 

[TheChief4Life]

TOUCHDOWN!

Sweet!

What a play by Luke!!!

 

[CaptainCrutch]

Don’t get me wrong, I know us Illinois fans like to complain about the refs but it really seems like they’re doing everything they can to give SC an edge here.

- steal a touchdown from McCray

- Arkin turns his head after what *at best* can be called a defensive line shift and it’s a false start on him.

- Laughery gets horse collared and it takes another defender running into our bench and roughing up Franklin to get a flag

- pretty clear touchdown and we’re putting it at the one because he didn’t touch the pylon

Yeesh.

 

[DeeIL89]

What were the refs looking at!? Franklin's arm clearly reached pass the line before he was pushed out of bound. These refs are making too quick of a call.

I know. Anderson had the 1st down by a yard.

 

[Iamgroot]

I got to say I'm glad to see luke throwing it around with the accuracy he is. Truthfully i wasn't really expecting much from the receiving crew without Bryant but so far have shown up to play

The broadcast is horrible, huge TD!!!!!

 

[Chillinini]

These refs and announcers have to be low on the pecking order.

Terrible.
