[QUOTE="uiuc ee 2012, post: 1414090, member: 655167"] I think after watching the last two weeks and seeing some real competitiveness, the expectations have changed. I expect them to beat Rutgers and Purdue and be 4-2 heading into Wisconsin. I expect one more win between Maryland, Minnesota and Nebraska and playing for bowl eligibility against Northwestern. We need to keep MJ at QB for the remainder of the season. He has shown some real improvement over the last two and a half games and the added reps will do him good in the coming years. The offense has looked lost with AJ behind center and since he is gone after this year, no reason to take away experience from our future. The stupid penalties need to stop. Those are momentum killers and good teams will capitalize on them as we saw tonight. You absolutely cannot give extra downs! I think I can finally see a light at the end of the tunnel. 2017 was a real stinker; 2018 is just below mediocre; 2019 will be the time for an upset or two; 2020 - watch out, we may have the most experienced team in the conference loaded with juniors and seniors.
