A blowout is definitely in play. Even with all of the players that they’ve lost

Oregon has a shit-ton of talent up and down their roster, far in excess of what Illinois has. Unless they’re just falling apart, Oregon should win easily.

Clayton may very well turn into a good QB but I’m expecting him to look pretty bad making his first start against all that talent on the Oregon D. I think a shitpumping is in play.

I got illini +9.5 last night. Dante Moore ready? Bye week refreshed boogie? Heard rumor it opened at 12.5 for sharps.

Great weather, are we BTN tailgate broadcast?

Moore officially out. Also Stewart. Platt listed as probable for us. - tvillini October 21, 2026, 20:44:23
- If they hadn’t pulled it out at last second against Nebraska, this would be a dead team coming in - OB25 October 21, 2026, 21:04:21
Oregon could probably play 22 of their Rudys and still win by 21* - bbonb October 20, 2026, 17:43:33
If Houser was healthy I honestly think we might win - illini21 October 20, 2026, 09:29:17

- I feel gutted for Katin, who was very good... but also part of me - ijustkrushalot October 20, 2026, 09:54:50
  - Soph Altmyer was slow reading the defense and in his decision making - CanHartlebHireSnider October 20, 2026, 10:20:09
    - We very possibly would be 5-1 with Altmyer at QB. Houser was bad against Purdue and the Duke game - Orangeillini October 20, 2026, 11:21:45
      - I would disagree with that but my post didn’t mention Altmyer either of the last two years* - CanHartlebHireSnider October 20, 2026, 11:32:09
      - Maybe I'm misremembering but I feel like the Duke game was on the coaches, not on Houser.* - ATL October 20, 2026, 11:22:48
        
        he did not play well in the 2H - illiniranger October 20, 2026, 13:18:05
        
        He didn’t play well, but I’d struggle to blame him for the final turnover on downs… - OB25 October 20, 2026, 13:21:14
        
        It was a 6 play drive, that’s not how it went. - illiniranger October 20, 2026, 15:48:25
        
        Houser missed the one TD in the 1st half that took 4 points off the board, but otherwise… - OB25 October 20, 2026, 11:38:07
        
        Houser also threw an interception with 7 minutes left and Duke up by 4 points* - Orangeillini October 20, 2026, 11:41:06
        
        Luke is definitely better off script - CanHartlebHireSnider October 20, 2026, 11:39:38
        
        They definitely have different strengths so it does probably more or less wash out - OB25 October 20, 2026, 12:19:43
        
        Houser and Altmyer stats are almost identical, except for Altmyer's SO year - illiniranger October 20, 2026, 13:15:33
  - i don't know if Clayton will be THE GUY going forward - Gene Parmesan October 20, 2026, 10:10:13
    - These were the first throws he's ever made... let's pump the brakes on takeaways... - uofi1998 October 20, 2026, 11:00:09
      - yeah on a few throws they were close to being picked - ECEIllinois October 20, 2026, 11:23:37
      - Agree, this year has become more interesting with Clayton. Houser is obviously better - Warrin'_Illini October 20, 2026, 11:16:33
    - unrelated but the name Clayton always makes me think of Saving Silverman - IlliniSax05 October 20, 2026, 10:26:11
    - i think we will keep going with short term rental QBs - illiniranger October 20, 2026, 10:24:46
      - If, and I stress if, Clayton proves himself over the final 6 games... - uofi1998 October 20, 2026, 11:02:12
      - yeah, i'm sure we will. - Gene Parmesan October 20, 2026, 10:56:56
      - I think it's the best move unless you can land on a prep recruit - ijustkrushalot October 20, 2026, 10:52:20
        
        the problem with "if he looks mid" is that he is a FR and he is going to look mid - illiniranger October 20, 2026, 13:11:38
- I think we have a small shot - ijustkrushalot October 20, 2026, 09:33:58
  - TIL: Akili Smith Jr. is Oregon's fourth quarterback* - IlliniOllie October 20, 2026, 09:39:35
Yeh it was 12.5 yesterday so they must be thinking Moore still isn’t playing?* - OB25 October 19, 2026, 19:15:17
- If we keep the loss under double digits, I'd be surprised, even without Moore or Stewart - ibdoc October 20, 2026, 08:41:44
  - west coast B1G teams play like shit when they come east and vice versa - illiniranger October 20, 2026, 10:15:40
