[TentakilRex]

OK that sucked

 

[New Creation]

This defense is trash

[gary?]

uab picked to finish 13th (out of 14) in american conference. this is garbage

 

[BlabDunkAnd1]

We are gonna get mauled in conference

 

[Thaillini22]

Is it going to be tied at the half?

Well, we trailed Toledo, so this is better

I see the opportunities for big plays on defense in this scheme…

I also see a LOT more opportunities for the other team to do whatever they want.

It’s gonna be a rough year.

 

[FoundersClub]

Wasn’t the line in the realm of -27 points?

 

[Battle89]

Time to suit up some of those Rochester players

 

[Orangetool]

Barna what the crap was that ?!?!??!

Sprint and hit him !!!!

Soft !!!!!!

This

 

[LurkerintheOpen]

That D line sucks

 

[Oracle21]

Hot take from the 1st half but our defense stinks. Really soft against the run and not much pressure

 

[Illini in Indiana]

 

[IllinistrandedinHouston]

Time of Possession. UAB. 23 minutes. Illini. 7 minutes. Good grief Charlie Brown

 

[STLflyinIllini]

Now Bret will have us kneel instead of taking a shot

 

[Illini1977]

Ooooof this was the only game I thought wouldn’t be stressful

 

[Illinisnake]

43 just jogging around out there

 

[TooHot4Tots]

Scheme dont mean jack if you dont have guys that can actually play ball

 

[phats22]

how have we only run 15 plays with 7 min TOP so far?

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Where would we be without that holding penalty on the first drive.

 

[Thaillini22]

Oh well. Make halftime adjustments and make this a laugher in the second half. I don't want another 2023 Toledo situation here (and knowing our luck this will be the best UAB team in years)

100%

Time to suit up some of those Rochester players

Can Aidan Wild transfer from WIU and play LB?

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Unleash Houser here. Don't kneel this out

 

[Illini4Christ]

Where is Aaron Henry?

Because God hates us
