Heh. I guess that's why you run a play there.

Some ragged first game play, too many penalties, missed field goals, and some mistiming between the QB and receivers, but overall great effort by offense, defense, and special teams. These are things our excellent coaching staff can easily correct (except field goal kicking). For the first time in many years, I am excited to see our offense progress this season.

I’m certainly not disappointed with this first half. I will become concerned if some things don’t get straightened up before second half and even more so before next game.

DeVito definitely looks more comfortable out there. A couple of catchable passes dropped, but also so bad passes. Years ahead of what we’ve had the last few years (at first glance), and I really liked Peters.

Defense is playing well, and as a whole the team has completely outplayed Wyoming. The only reason we’re not winning by 10 or more points than we are is because of ourselves.

I-L-L!

We look competent on both sides of the ball, there have been some creative playcalls, and the QB is making quick decisions and getting rid of the football.

This is Illinois football. Remember where the bar is set.

Clean up some of those block in the backs and holds. Receivers have to be able to get open when the initial route is covered and Tommy has time. Also, we can and should run that toss play until Wyoming gets out on the edge. Chase could have 300 yards today.
