FIFY.
And that's also why having someone like Stallions spying on your practices and with drones is so detrimental to college football and against the rules. Because magical moments and plays like that fake punt don't happen. Michigan would've already been prepared for it. It's a lot easier not to lose games when your cheating ensures you know every play your opponent practices. Such a shame they didn't get that advantage today
Ha I just assumed one more loss but 0 more works!FIFY.

No doubt he subscribes to the maxim that no publicity is bad publicity.
Also, I note that he waited until this morning, when the bitterness of defeat had sunk indelibly into his withered soul before his cold take.
I didn't let out a breath until Bailey picked off that pass at the 2
About the Leary 2 point attempt.
Please remember, BB has been singing the praises for Leary I think going back to last January about his progress and maturity as a top QB.
So an unexpected opportunity opened up at that point in the game and BB just went with it.
Also remember Luke missed the last three games last year so I expect to see Leary get more playing time after Oregon if only to keep Luke healthy and strong to finish a full season and give Leary more game time experience.
Was I holding my breath on that play? You bet I was because my expectation was to have Fichie intercept/recover fumble and return it 100+ yards for their own 2 point score as is per usual for Illinois football in the past.
Finally, that Leary pass was just so perfect as if he had been there before.

Lol! Well, he's a Michigan fan. If anyone knows about illegal things, it's him. Maybe he should cry in his pizza, I hear he liked it salty.

I'd be curious what rules he thinks are being violated.
Maybe it's just a call back to the coach in 1924 having his players not wearing stockings.
haha
in general, I appreciate Portnoys attitude and admire his ability to make a buck
but I am tired of his love of scUM and his repeated ability to open a standard chicago pizza box with the side flaps.
also, while Ive never had New Haven coal fired pizza, I already know I would not favor it over chicago tavern style thin crust cut into small pieces
Ive had NY pizza and was not a fan

It's truly astonishing and I had no idea that was a Chicago-specific thing.
With the exception of a very few number of years, I've been saying this since 1955.... So welcome to the club..

For those of us with gray hair beating Michigan despite their record is big. They’ve owned us.

Yeah Jacas was flashy and terrific (finally that version reappears) but TeRah really put in a yeoman's shift for us against a big, strong OL.

Someone this week before the game mentioned this may be the best O & D lines we will face this year. Is that still your opinion?
Lunney didnt make the call on the fake punt, Bret did.

Name checks out… sort of.
IDK where you read. On the Reddit CFB live thread it was probably 75/25 in favor; some snarks of course, some don’t likes. But mostly people identifying themselves as fans of other teams had good things to say. This is a national forum with 8,000 comments on our game; it was one of the most commented on games of the day.Curious, why are people online all angry over the throw back uni, saying they should be illegal?
jealousy? trolling? legit regulations broken?
Didn’t see if it’s been addressed somewhere.
(Fact: they were pure. I was thinking it could be our new Uni in multiple colors. It was the first time I felt Illinois had a real brand identity since Chief retired)
.While I love the idea, I did say that I want to see my little boys. OFTEN.Be sure to take them throwback Jerseys.
