Not sure why we didn’t go for it on 4th and 1 there?
What a crappy, crappy loss.
What a crappy, crappy loss.
Only in weirdo last 30 seconds of half type situations should you even consider punting on 4th and 1 in plus territory. It's not clever, savvy math, it's smack-on-forehead undeniable math.
I did and I'm tired of what I saw from Peters the last few years. He is what he isDid you not see Art the last 2 games?
You just described the essence of Illinois football.Illini were up 17-10 and had the ball, 3rd and 2 at the Maryland 41 yard line with 5 minutes to play.
… and lost in regulation.
In those last five minutes, not one player made a play. Not one coach made a good call. Epic fail.
It’s more cathartic to just toss it in the fire pit while being fairly intoxicated.Sorry all. My Illinois fandom is officially finished. I’ve been a fan for over 30 years. This program has no hope and what I witnessed tonight and especially last week is an embarrassment. I’m going to see if I can sell my apparel on eBay if I’m lucky enough to find someone to buy it. Best wishes to you all.
We’ll see you here next week!Sorry all. My Illinois fandom is officially finished. I’ve been a fan for over 30 years.

go back and re-read the pregame thread; most were thinking blow out double digit loss. i get it, we could and should of won this but if you can't see improvement compared with the last 2 weeks look again- defense played much better, even with the late melt down. we all need to temper our expectations and realize how big a hole this program was in when the new staff took overWe had every reason to get smoked in this game and we didn’t, sorry if any of us thought this was gonna be easy but this is better than I expected
No, it wasn't pretty, but it was a heck of a lot closer of a game than I thought it was going to be.
Onward to Purdon't.
Yeah utterly baffling.Not sure why we didn’t go for it on 4th and 1 there?
