Simply can't win only scoring 13 points (net 11 points).
Defense looked good overall, but that is also because Iowa has no real offense.
The key stat to me was no rushing yards by Paddock. I think Paddock played an ok game, but his lack of threat to run hurt in the end, especially with passing lanes getting closed off down the stretch. Some of the batted balls down in 4th quarter were telegraphed, especially the final 4th down play.
To be clear, the Illini did not lose because of Paddock, but I think we can really use Altmyer's legs going forward. I want to see how Altmyer performs in a must win game next week.
