[QUOTE="MaineIllini, post: 1428790, member: 746032"] I started being an Illini fan when Bob Blackman was the coach and Kurt Steger was the QB. I recall some serious beatdowns over the years. There was the time in Ann Arbor where Bo put 70 points on Mike White’s team. And a few years later when Nebraska came to Champaign and romped. I think that was the same season that Chuck Long’s Iowa team beat Illinois 59-0. And I remember the time that Penn State crushed us in a night game, and thankfully JoePa held the score down in the 2nd half. But in all those games, the opponent was very good. I don’t think today’s Iowa team is that good. That’s what makes today’s defeat so disheartening for me. I would not want to be in Mr. Whitman’s shoes right now. His only real option, it seems to me, is to stay the course for now. [/QUOTE]
