After attending all the home games this season, and after witnessing that horrible loss to UW, I told my husband that if we lost the Minny game, I really did not want to go to the Indiana game. Then Paddock to Williams happened. Now I’m sucked back in, psyched and excited (yet again) to go watch and support the :illinois:. Let’s goooooooooo! Just win, baby!

Follow BBall much closer than FB. Know Altmyer got hurt (not sure what he hurt) and then Paddock's incredible drive. Haven't seen or heard what Altmyer injured or status for Indiana game. Sorry if duplicate and I just missed it.

even with Love back on the sidelines and ready to go, we need to have at least one more guy (Fedanzo ? ) getting some practice reps this week, correct ?

Season trends for the Illini and Indiana show that both are improving over recent games, especially the Hoosiers. Illinois' last three efforts have been among the four best all year, and Indiana's last two games are the highest rated of their season and better than any Illini performance. So momentum may favor the visitors. (An average rating is 0 on the vertical axis. The game ratings, from BCf Toys, are "are opponent-adjusted data representing the value generated per possession in each game relative to an average team performance on a neutral field against an average opponent."}

Not so much answering this question but mentioned month ago it would be smart to have IW and/or IW/Feagin lined up together in backfield at times. Might be more important now if Altmyer would miss any time as Paddock isn't going to run often. Just the threat of IW touching the ball throws the D off balance if you throw him in the backfield for a certain number of plays. Give him a run, short pass, put him in motion to see how D reacts, etc. Not sure if the staff would feel comfortable using few other WRs/TEs in the backfield but would love to see a few guys with speed utilized a little more into the gameplan even if just to give the RBs a few plays off.

I’m hoping Feagin gets most of the carries. 2nd and 6 is a much better setup than 2nd and 9.

Amazingly similar season performances. Laying one graph over the other, it would probably be hard to find two teams who have performed more similarly over the course of the season! I'll expect a close one!

Thanks for the charts. Surprised you were only the runnerup... You were clearly robbed!
