Game Thread: Illinois vs Southern Illinois

[RIP_Chief_2003]

Starting inside our own 10 is Lunney’s kryptonite…

 

[IlliniCaboose]

Special teams has certainly been special so far

 

[EmeraldCityIllini]

I don't love when we get pinned deep and when we give the ball back, they opponent is still in our territory.

 

[LFOD]

I wouldn’t mind a pick 6

 

[TheChief4Life]

Damn.

 

[LFOD]

That was a nice play all around, unfortunately

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Well read on the QB option

 

[dsg]

Instead of just throwing a shoulder at the guy, he could have wrapped his arms around him and tackled him.

 

[IlliniCaboose]

Can we field one punt please?

 

[Lefty_55]

Not all punts are fieldavle but how many yards has Mac given up by not fielding punts? Feels like it’s been a lot

 

[skyIdub]

ouch

 

[PNWIllini]

Why is 10 leading with his helmet

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Ooof… helmet to helmet man

 

[JJE]

So, do we utilize the 4th quarter 10 minute clock next week when we are down 60?

 

[BWBW]

Nice pursuit

 

[FloridaMan]

The thrower set the receiver up for a huge hit to dislodge the ball and Resetich let up and didn't make a hit. Bad.

 

[fuddrules]

Heckel in for Juice

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Good open field tackle by Heckel

 

[foby]

Big Play Heckel

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Why is 10 leading with his helmet

That’s Kreutz.

 

[LFOD]

Beautiful stop

 

[FloridaMan]

Absolute blatant hold not called. Jeeez

 

[TentakilRex]

Good job....defense?!?!?

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

More Collin Dixon.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Very nice defensive stand inside their own 10. Stiffened up a lot
