Illinois 24, Nebraska 13 Postgame

#251      
This game seemed like a carbon copy of the Oregon game- it starts off with them dominating and you wonder if it’s going to be a blowout because we can’t stop them and our offense can’t do anything and then it flips and all of a sudden our defense steps up big time and our offense starts making plays. The flip of the switch seemed to be Aidan’s long TD against Oregon and the fake FG against Nebby. Both convincing wins in the end despite not being turnover driven

It does make me wonder if we can get off to better starts what this team can do- it almost seems like Cooper needs to see what the other team is doing then is able to adjust to stop it.

I think we have a legit shot against UCLA if we can avoid an early hole- they don’t look as unbeatable as an undefeated team normally does
