[QUOTE="Illinir1, post: 1417359, member: 4270"] Nice win Illini!!! Defense wins it with turnovers. Tooting my own horn from game week post. We won by 21 and yardage was 419 for Illinois vs 386 for Rutgers. My post: "When you look at team scoring stats, the Illini score 10.6 ppg more (27.0 vs. 16.4) and are giving up 7.3 ppg (31.5 vs. 38.8) less than Rutgers. Net advantage +17.9 points Illinois. But when you look at total yardage stats matching our offense against their defense, and vice versa, you get: Illini offense 409 ypg vs. Rutgers defense 438 ypg = 424 yards expected Illini offense. Rutgers offense 281 ypg vs. Illini defense 508 ypg = 395 yards expected Rutgers offense. A difference of 29 yards favoring the Illini, which wouldn't cover the usual +3 points for home field advantage." [/QUOTE]
