[QUOTE="Illinir1, post: 1815269, member: 4270"] In that game this referee crew flagged the Illini 8 times for 81 yards, while penalizing Indiana 3 times for 35 yards. In this game the Illini were penalized 12 times for 121 yards while Purdue had 6 penalties for 80 yards. Arguably, two of Purdue's six penalties (and 30 of Purdue's 80 yards in penalties) were no negative impact to them because they were called for two unsportsmanlike conduct fouls on an Illini TD. The penalties were assessed on the ensuing kickoff...meaning the Illini kicked off from Purdue's 35 yard line. Purdue caught the kickoff at their 23 yard line, with no return......in effect a 2 yard penalty vs. a touchback. In all of the B1G games this weekend, here were the number of penalties for each team: ILL-12 Purdue-6, IU-2 OSU-3, Neb-4 Mich-1, Maryland-7 PSU-6, Rutgers-14!!! MSU-6, Wisc-5 Iowa-3, NW-3 Minn-4. It's amazing that Illinois and Rutgers were each penalized twice as many times as their opponent and at, or nearly at, twice the next most penalized team in all B1G games (Maryland-7). [/QUOTE]
