Game Thread: Illinois vs UTSA

[BlueLeader]

Certainly a lot of weaknesses with this team to focus on in practice.

Just got my kids to bed, what did I miss?

Oh...

 

[illinoistradition]

That was all runs, right? A CUSA team just ran down our throats. Wow. That’s sad.

 

[DReq]

No problem coming up with areas to work on. Nebraska must truly suck.

 

[IlliniForceOne]

Our effort on 3rd down, long short or otherwise was just atrocious tonight. That is where we lost the game.

 

[dsg]

That was the back breaker.

 

[Wokker]

Y’all fairweather fans are embarrassing.
Some of you called game last time we were down 10. Not looking great but let’s see the game all the way through eh?

quitter syndrome all over here

 

[LFOD]

Well, looks like we need to hit the recruiting trail

 

[Ramrod2010]

Did they just go 80 some yards in the 4th quarter of a 1 score game for a TD without throwing the ball?

Yeah, that was Lovie-esque. You knew what they were going to do and yet...

 

[orange100]

I'm so glad my kids don't care about illinois sports. This cycle of poverty stops with them.

 

[jrmarcus]

with that said.. UTSA.. is a good team

No, they're good for their conference, but Illinois should be embarrassed about losing to this team.

 

[GrayGhost77]

The 2011 Whitney Merciless defense this is not.

 

[JSpence]

They picked a good team as their first B1G opponent. There's enough time for them to be 'forced' into a drive that puts them over 40 points.

Yup… just plowed right through our vaunted D-line and linebackers.

 

[LJ22]

I mean, every pre-game post on this board scouted this better than our coaching staff. It wasn't a surprise that they are strong at the run.

It’s just a flesh wound

 

[IlliniForceOne]

Welcome to Illinois, Bret.
Like us, you’ll get used to this feeling

 

[DeonThomas]

Looks like this will be the Big 10's first non-conference loss of the season.

 

[PNWIllini]

So maybe Lovie’s coaching wasn’t the issue. Lovie’s players on the other hand…

Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? No, and it ain't over now!"

Who are you talking to? The quitters wouldn't be on here still or still watching.
