Game Thread: Illinois vs Southern Illinois

[TentakilRex]

Tackling seems better today.

Tackling looks better today.

Secondary is wrapping up today. Love to see it. Big gains from last week in technique

It's early, but tackling seems better so far

Good tackling, but this QB is good

We all are on the same page then.

And I jinxed it

 

[Pikeillinifan]

tOSU is going to rush for 500+ yards on us.

 

[RIP_Chief_2003]

wtf is Kante doing?…

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Awful call on Scott

Awful call on Kante

 

[gary?]

wtf is Kanye doing?…

many people are saying. . .

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Two bad calls.

 

[TheChief4Life]

Color me not impressed so far…

 

[EmeraldCityIllini]

two awful calls lmao

 

[TheGMan]

That's a pretty tough roughing the passer call there

 

[TheChief4Life]

Can someone tell me exactly what about the 3-3-5 I’m supposed to like?

 

[UCantHideYer]

Two crap whistles on one play

 

[Jon]

Making me think he's related to Caleb vs this defense

 

[LFOD]

We might need to keep an eye on Williams

 

[Lefty_55]

The defense is very poor. Feels like there’s not a single difference maker on the field

 

[gary?]

fcs defense

 

[AssemblyHallForever]

Put a spy on their QB. Not rocket science

 

[Pikeillinifan]

I didn’t think the defense would be this bad. Instead of just missing tackles we’re in poor position on almost every play.

 

[LuckyIllini]

I’ve seen enough of Hauck to know I don’t want him back next year. He can’t coach his way out of a wet paper bag.

 

[Illini-Rule]

Wow, looks like another shoot out...

 

[Miles Leonard]

I mean if the defense can't even stop SIU...

 

[aaeismacgychel]

We are getting 0 penetration from our DL. The only pressure we can provide is with the blitz. That will be a problem all season. SIU carving us up

 

[Marshall_Lucky]

Well that was.. a thing that happened

 

[EmeraldCityIllini]

its such a cop out to blame NIL when you get fooled on an option by SIU every time.

 

[TentakilRex]

That sucks

 

[ohioillini77]

Defense still garbage.
