[QUOTE="pruman91, post: 1948745, member: 3916"] Well , well , well.........................A very winnable game last night if we had a capable OC and a non-porous OLine........ Not defending Altmyer , as he has issues also , but numerous low snaps and suspect play calling left Luke out on an island where he was running around for his life and making poor choices when under fire......... He had........................ 1.... Little time to set up and go through his check downs to find an open receiver....... 2....Poor choice on the interception thrown as he was woefully short with his pass and receiver was not open....... 3....21 yards rushing allowed nebby to tee off on most plays................. 4....so many TFL's on north-south play's called and lack of slants over the middle to loosen up the D..... 5....Griffin M. catching a first down pass then fumbling with a direct hit on the football and only having 1 arm on the ball... Our defense played a somewhat good game with a few turnovers acquired as nebby was trying to help us to comeback but we were handicapped with an O that lacked imagination as evident by our initial drive of the game........we moved the ball well and for 74 yards ....it was those last inches that doomed another red zone possession without points....... Special teams worst game this year with a poor choice on that blocked punt and the awful failure to cover a kickoff that was recovered by nebby........ What disturbs me the most is an apparent lack of fundamental play on all three units........I agree that Lunney isn't the answer but nothing probably will happen until the off season.......Gonna be hard for BB to part ways with friends such as the OC and DC but this ain't working ......... We have the leading receiver in the B$G ( I. Williams ) and he still is underutilized as are the TE's.........Seems like our offense has a good drive on first possession of the game then hibernation creeps in for a couple of quarters........ Next week against the twerps will be ugly.......on the road against a ranked team with a very good QB1 will escalate quickly into a rout , JMHO......................... Last night was a long long long game with little to cheer for the Illini's performance........Seems like there could be one of those embarrassing 40 +- 0 lopsided losses that we all remember from years past....... With 4 former PAC teams joining next season the road only gets bumpier going forward............I am right now trying to remember the glory of last year but it is being clouded by this rough 2-4 record this year......... JMHO [/QUOTE]
