Thank goodness we have someone who actually looks like a college-level qb. If we had DeVito on the roster last season we go bowling.
Walters is incredible. We need to enjoy him while we have him because he absolutely should be a head coach next season.
1 down, 5 more to go.

Why does it feel like we have a legit coaching staff now? It's an incredible feeling.

OSKEE wow wow!!!
This could be the ultimate case of confirmation bias but we look really well coached and prepared.
When you're a program on the rebound you take them one at a time. I really didn't expect us to play this well. Great start.

It’s very disorienting…
Been familiar with it for basketball for a few years. Hoping football can catch up.
It's just one game but things are looking up, Illini nation. Indiana will be a great test for this team. I-L-L....I-N-I!!!!
Very solid performance, which needs to happen against weak teams like Wyoming. Beat the Hoosiers!
We did what a Big 10 team is supposed to do to a team like Wyoming. We had some 1st half hiccups, but overall the team looks prepared and ready to play.
On the stadium…. There was a weird bottleneck before kickoff as the crowd was trying to get in on the west side, and the food service had a heck of a time kicking out the concessions. I have to wonder what would happen if we ever did get a crowd of 60k.

In terms of projecting the season it’s hard to say the needle budged either way unless the IW situation is more serious than it looked.
Wyoming were total garbage, that was an FCS-type game.

That was great to see.
I fully expect to see Wyoming improve week over week until they are back in a bowl by the end of the season.

Yes - I was of course referring to FB.
Great win, we have a good football team. What a pleasant turn of events - we built on a solid year and are getting better.
Competence is why you hire Bielema. Obviously we want more, but raising the floor for this program matters.

We held them to 1-12 on 3rd down and 30 yards through the air. The defense is young, but Walters can flat out coach.
