[QUOTE="illini80, post: 1676944, member: 2241"] I get the frustration, but I’m looking at it like this: The defense played another solid game, on the road in a hostile environment. That’s a positive. The offense put up 23 on one of the better defenses in the conference, on the road in a hostile environment, in spite of the turnovers, missed receivers and dropped passes. Lots to improve on there, but that’s more points than I expected us to put up. I doubt BB being there in person would have made the difference, but it doesn’t help to not have your leader present. Iowa deserves their top 20 ranking and we played right with them. Add in a few breaks and eliminate a mistake or two and we could have won. That’s a far cry from where we were a year ago. If we don’t beat Northwestern, I will be singing a different tune. [/QUOTE]
