[QUOTE="KnoxIllini2, post: 1660887, member: 18062"] This is called: Illinois doing Illinois things. With what was just summarized, I’m especially concerned with how we come out next week against Purdue. We played a competent game for 55 minutes and then found the most irritating, soul crushing way to lose. It’s always easier to get over a blowout loss (see Illinois post-UVA), but losing LIKE THAT, that can stick with a team. This is the coaching staff’s biggest test. Two things I’ll be watching, how do they bounce back from the multitude of gaffes to end that game, and how well do they get the team ready to play in West Lafayette. If we play competitive football next week, we are going in the right direction. The typical Illinois move would be to get blasted by at least 4 scores against a beatable foe. Here’s to hoping this coaching staff and players are different. [/QUOTE]
