It seems our mission this year is to take on ranked teams and sentence them to oblivion. Penn St excepted, of course. Playing with house money next week at Oregon. Let's see what Coach B and staff have in mind. Back to back weekends featured nationally on CBS is absolutely great for our program, looking to impress HS recruits and transfers from the portal when that window opens.

Wish we can use a two back personnel package from the shotgun with him and our best pass blocking TE in the backfield and have him catch dump off passes. Might work in College Football 25 lol.
A beautiful orange and blue sky in Champaign this evening. The 3 hour trip back to the Lou tonight will be so sweet.

Tuttle had both more passing yards and a higher completion percentage than Altmyer, but I think Altmyer's QB rating and QBR was higher...

I prefer to think they're pretty good (especially on the lines) but we're better overall.
I never found any joy in thinking, woo, hoo, we beat a lousy team!

How in the hell did he get 208 yards?
I'm kinda speechless right now. This level of competence in all areas surrounding the FB program, pulling off a day like today... it's kinda surreal!
I keep welling up watching all these Twitter vids.

Agree. We rushed the field on a team that we were ranked higher than. This speaks volumes about the last two decades.

Throwing 32 times and looking not great doing it. Tons of passes that were nowhere close to the target.
A bunch of 3rd and 20 completions helps.

What a time to be an Illini, we’ve seen some highs but much more lows lately and this just feels different, feels like that gust is finally blowing in our direction and we have the people in place to capitalize. Bielema has an Underwood like opportunity at this moment, roll it in the 9-10 win realm and this fire gets burning hot.
all 4th qtr crap stuff
Well, about 3 plays in a row when it didn’t matter and we were letting him have it…more or less. (1:00 left…their last drive)
Another long one he got after we course corrected for the play before(him having way too much time in the pocket)…and we sent everybody and their dog…
That was prolly about half of it…
First win over them since 2009 so I say it’s fine

Three minutes left. Not that I would have written that here at the time, but that is when I started chilling.
Unheard of in my personal Illini history.
Mea culpa @punchabove33 , you were right in the end.

1. Their TE is pretty good and could be a 1st rounder
2. They weren't exactly running an Air Coryell offense out there. Heck this is a rare game where their offense needed to be more Brian Ferentz inspired.
