Game Thread: Illinois vs Toledo

[Coop70]

Feel as if I just climbed ten flights of stairs.

 

[TentakilRex]

Welcome back Bryant.... and the lead!

 

[KingWolf11]

 

[Butters]

National champs baby!

 

[JimILL75]

Lunney must have read this board at half time! Good job Forum members. But that 2 point play we gave NO advice on.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Great TD, bad play call for the conversion toward the short side of the field.

Anyway, let’s go D and go ILLINI!!!!

 

[illini80]

That had no chance but whatever. Defense has to hold.

 

[FloridaMan]

Really like Altmyer's poise

 

[LoveLovie]

Still better than only getting 3. We have the momentum

 

[TentakilRex]

Too cute for the 2pt conversion

 

[Mr. Roberts]

What innthe wide, wide world.of sports was rhat?

 

[PattyOBryant]

National champs baby!

We will be playing Colorado for the title. Mark my words.

 

[cardini99]

Illini football=not for the faint of heart have my Bare Low Dose Aspirin handy lol

 

[IlliniFaninHoosierLand]

Martin O'Donnell's reaction on radio to that trick play on the 2-point conversion was great. My best description of it would be annoyed groan.

 

[thehass]

Altmyer is our leading rusher right now which is … uh … good/bad?

Like what i have seen from Luke.

 

[SuperMetroid]

That 2-point play…and to the short side of the field

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Minus the one bad decision, Luke has exceeded my hopes.

He's the real deal, that bad decision included. You don't just show up Game 1 with the timing he's had. Quite frankly, he's been incredible

 

[PasadenaIllini]

Hell effing yes! What a drive. All right boys

That 2-point attempt was a bit of a crapfest, but overall yes.

 

[hoopsfan47]

Now the big challenge....can we come close to stopping the mighty Rockets Steam Machine offense? Nothing yet to think that can be done by this defense.

 

[TentakilRex]

BTW our new conference mate might not like us playing "Shout" this late in the game.

 

[LFOD]

Defense is fired up!

 

[Chillinini]

Defense starting to wake up.

 

[JJE]

Seems like we're starting to settle in a bit.

 

[Old.Edgy]

How could you.

Actually I blame myself... finally decided on YouTube TV, spent the $73 and then it took me 20 more minutes to get it set up on my iPad.... Shouldn't have gone with the YouTube TV...

 

[FrankNitty30]

What in the absolute F!?!?!? Why get cute? Run it right at them. Spread them out and qb draw. ANYTHING but THAT abomination.

Stupid!
