Going into this game I was hoping for one win versus Wisconsin, MN, or Iowa,I think we win out.
Wild. I just thought of this. I think an angry Illinois football team takes out its frustrations on Goldy.
Unfortunately, I think you might be on to something. The Illinois defense basically fell apart after the targeting call.There's a decent chance this bad Minny team runs for 200 yards in the first half with Newton out.
Newton was ejected for targeting so can't play the first half against Minny.What's wrong with Newton I must of missed it?if we beat Maryland on the road I completely think we have a chance to beat the gophers.maryland seems like alot better team then the gophers we just got to show up and play smart limit the turnovers and score some points
Well, they have two weeks, so I am sure it will be fixed by then.I mean, who can predict what these guys will do?
Big question is do we get Randolph back. With Newton out, we really need him in there.
I know they won't fix the offense in a week but FFS can we add a couple of wrinkles with slants or screens? Something to offset the fact Altmyer never gets more than three seconds to pass.
If our coaches had any common sense, they would have him serve his one half suspension during the bye week.Newton was ejected for targeting so can't play the first half against Minny.
Call me crazy I think we do the same if we get this one.I think we win out.
This is true. I am sure that there is a pressure campaign from the administration to the league offices to downgrade the penalty, but we are Illinois not Michigan or Ohio State. Therefore, it is an uphill battle.Newton was ejected for targeting so can't play the first half against Minny.
I’d gladly trade the Whisky loss for a win over Iowa!Call me crazy I think we do the same if we get this one.
I thought the same thing going into the 4th quarter of the game last weekend. That thought was abruptly eradicated. This team can't be trusted from quarter to quarter much less game to game.Call me crazy I think we do the same if we get this one.
Well, they better get a few things fixed by the MInny game.Well, they have two weeks, so I am sure it will be fixed by then.
They’ll have had two weeks to put it back together.Unfortunately, I think you might be on to something. The Illinois defense basically fell apart after the targeting call.
Genius.If our coaches had any common sense, they would have him serve his one half suspension during the bye week.
Something Michigan would be allowed to negotiate in the same situation.If our coaches had any common sense, they would have him serve his one half suspension during the bye week.
Agree, but isn’t this a reflection of the fact that we have zero depth on this team. Lack of depth really stood out during the Wisconsin game.There's a decent chance this bad Minny team runs for 200 yards in the first half with Newton out.
