[QUOTE="mhuml32, post: 1479284, member: 3621"] Optimist: Won first non-conference road game in 12 years. (big gulp of kool-aid mixed with grain alcohol) Every time Illinois wins a non-conference road game, they play in one of the top bowl games (Rose, Sugar). Corbin and Brown didn't play, Adams was hurt mid-game, Green was ejected for targeting, still found a way to win. Corbin, Brown, and Green should be back for EMU. Completely dominated the UCONN running game. Pessimist: This was a great opportunity to plant a flag and say things were going to change with a comfortable win, it didn't happen. Only had one quarter of quality play. True freshman QB lit up the secondary with 275 passing yards and no interceptions. EMU threw for a ton of yards against Kentucky and is much better than UCONN. Peters seems destined to have a back-breaking interception (or two) at some point this year. Penalty monster reared up. Put up 31 points against a team that is likely the worst defense we see for the rest of the season. Illinois allowed almost the same amount of points as Wagner. [/QUOTE]
