Coaches, this is not hard to see. We get pressure, we do ok. We let this QB sit back and survey the field and he picks us apart.
Get some freakin pressure!
Get some freakin pressure!
Game Thread: Illinois vs USC
- Status
Ok... I was starting to feel comfortable that we have this under control. USC looking to open up the playbook
He’s good … He ain’t great …
And he looks like prime freaking Peyton today with 2 backup OL …
Major hold there. But not on USC. Protected class.
Absolutely, instant shift.
That fumble call hurts

Must score on this drive. Game over if we don't. D has ZERO answers. Can't even get lined up.
No killer instinct in this team whatsoever.. Offense has played nearly flawless outside of the Feagin fumble (which was pure BS of a call)...
I don't think the defense has been all that terrible in general... But our 3rd and 4th down defense has just been beyond bad. Like fireable bad.

It feels like our D line isn't doing enough to show the refs the holds. I'd like to see a little more fight to get through and force them to throw the flag
If we lose 2 starters and the defense completely falls apart …
Epic FAILURE in recruiting … Epic FAILURE in development …
These guys gotta be ready to freaking play when their number is called …
Well, that's why you can't commit to blitzing. It's one on one all over the field and that's a no contest with their receivers. Our corners aren't very good.

Boy they missed a hold on that conversion play. Why do I know it’s gonna end 32-31. Would be such an Illini moment
Alright, gotta go right back down the field
Just win this thing no matter how ugly.
Gotta keep it stressful
