Iowa is not in a great spot right now (LvilleILL1)
- Des Moines, IA
I am very happy to have been proven wrong. I was pessimistic and thought we would see "same old Illinois". Kudos to the team for a very important win that hopefully will springboard the team to two more wins and a very big season for this program.
Great performances by McCray, Bryant, Franklin, Jackson, Coleman and others but Luke tied Jeff George for 10th all time in passing TDs in school history.
Great win for the program! Seven wins with a chance for 8 (dare I say 9?). Overcame some adversity in the 3rd quarter to make it a comfortable, enjoyable 4th quarter. Great job! Get at least one more to ensure a top tier FL bowl game!

Back in the win column
We won! In November!
Having high expectations is good, but let's all still be conscious of the fact that this is just the 5th time since 1990 that we've won 7 regular season games.
The defense had some lapses and there was some strange play calling today, as there has been all year..but we won a Big 10 game 38-16. It wasn't that long ago that we gave up 60 three times in the same season.
The program is in a good spot.

Really appreciated the adjustments by both Henry (bringing pressure) and Lunney (giving the ball to Josh, with one even designed to go outside). Great to see them recognize what was working and move away from what was clearly not in Q3.
Congratulations Seniors!
7-3 is so much better than 6-4.
Robert Smith pointed out he is 2-0 against Bielema. I will point out he is 0-2 against Illini. I was sitting close to the field when he quit in 1992 after Illini threw him back for a safety.

- how was I to know, she was with the Russians too?
good bounce back. nice to see Malachi Hood getting some snaps
Some odd play calling along the way and odd usage of running backs, but we won going away and are 7-3, it’s a great place to be.
Let’s win the next one and then the next one.

No kidding.
The O line needs some work( even though no sacks) but this game hopefully restored the team's confidence that wasn't there against Minny.
Huge win for a lot of reasons. Luke, Josh, and our receivers were fantastic, and Matt Bailey, Jacas, and Terah all had great games on defense. This keeps 9 wins still in play and a prime opportunity to keep forward momentum in recruiting and our national perception. Rutgers and Northwestern are very beatable but you have to go out and do it. Really proud of our guys, let's win these next 2 games and go to the Citrus Bowl. Great win.
