I guess our DL was bad yesterday

PFF ratings are really stupid

So, Feagin between the tackles just isn't going to happen, right?

Not for now. Forever *

Yeah, it’s a bummer. He’s really talented*

I wish he'd play tight end*
Posted by Taz Being an Illini fan is a goddamn curse.*
|
He’s fine where he is but they just need to stop pretending he’s a short yardage back*
Posted by bjl63
|
I still remember that tackle from last year. Could be a beast at linebacker.*
Posted by Toonces
|
His vision is bad bad*
Posted by reggiedunlop

That’s not even the big issue. It just takes too long to get the freight train going.

so slow to the hole on those short yardage plays.*

17 in the AP too*

Hard to understand the logic in ranking Texas and Penn State, but not Florida State*

That drop, you’d think they lost to UCLA 63-10*

17th in the Coaches poll*

Dropped to 29 in Sp+

this may be more of a bye week discussion, and I think there's a pretty low chance it would happen

Definitely intriguing, though I would worry about his durability

Interestingly, Penn State just played its way out of the CFP yesterday.

63-10 means we need to beat OSU, IMO*
Posted by uofi1998
|
Maybe but ND made it in last year despite the NIU loss*
Posted by bjl63
|
That being said, this D is going to lose us a game we should easily win*
Posted by bjl63
|
I’m not a Henry hater and I agree with OB25’s survey. But yeah, we will lose…
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
Yep. If we were 10-2 the talking heads would say awful things about our case
Posted by illini
|
OSU has a historically good defense, I don’t think there’s any way in hell we get out of the teens
Posted by illiniranger
|
The only path to keeping the game close is scoring a lot of points
Posted by GMAW
|
We’re probably going to get beat like 42-7
Posted by illiniranger
|
We basically need turnovers magic*
Posted by GMAW
|
I think we're going to get worked... I'm just saying we need that kind of win...
Posted by uofi1998

It has to be a close game*

It's MAYBE there if we finish strong
Posted by ijustkrushalot

For about 6 days. Michigan is losing at USC next weekend*
Posted by opossum jenkins

if tOSU blows us out (very possible), I'd imagine we'd be excluded from the playoff at 10-2*
Posted by Orangeillini
|
I don’t think there’s any path to the playoff without beating OSU
Posted by GMAW

Something like that. Couldn't take advantage of our favorable schedule.

We all appreciate how good Luke is right?

Getting close to UI QB GOAT status.

Red River Shootout

They do Red River every year almost and have been to Oregon a bunch

If Texas loses, they're not going there*

They went to Miami earlier this year when they played Florida

A shitty Texas team and an OU team with a backup QB is not a great storyline*
Posted by bjl63
|
The only “story” is the rivalry. Oregon is far more compelling story-wise
Posted by bjl63

Eugene for IU - Oregon is a better game if Texas loses here. *
Posted by assassin

They go to Oregon every year, just about, thought that is a better game

Illinois +14 v tOSU*

I’d take the +14*

Is Olano the best kicker in the nation? Hard to say he’s not*
Posted by bjl63

It makes me nervous that many of his makes are close to being misses*

I thought it was crazy high praise when Bielema said he was the best kicker he's ever coached.*

I don’t agree with him. I think the usc game last week was a bigger game. .

The problem there is hindsight, I think

If we win, we’re suddenly a great bet to make the playoffs

JMHO: keep it within the Vegas spread, no injuries. Don't look like spit before halftime.

I’m well aware. I live in Columbus. I’ve seen it all.

That’s why I disagree with roughy. OSU plays a different sport than us. Like Oregon last year.
Posted by opossum jenkins

I wasn't thinking about it that way, but a win would set up some amazing possibilities. So maybe.*
Posted by Orangeillini

I appreciate the enthusiasm, but we’re gonna lose. And we’re gonna lose huge. *
Posted by VIV

Bigly.*
Posted by Illiniphil

Not in the least*

It’s always huge when you get #1 at home, and it would set us up to be fully in the CFP convo

I don't agree with him mostly cuz I don't think we have a shot

We are going to win.*

Had they lost by two TDs or less against Indiana I would agree 100%

Biggest opportunity in that long, sure.

yes*

Luke is what I’ll remember about this game. He’s just the best we’ve had in 25 years*

David Olano a close second. *

Good point*

Missing any one of those could have sent things spiraling the other way

It’s pretty ridiculous.*

Seems appropo to have another playclock running out issue before the game ends*

Intentionally making it tough on Olano. Interesting strategy*
Posted by John Coctostan

5/5, 3 over 40. Rock solid*

Defense stepped up in the end. Also, what a weird low-energy effort from Purdue on that drive*

I see why Nitro Tuggle didn’t work out at UGA *

He is my MVP of the game

Don’t rush 3 here please*
Posted by Mrap24

Tacking last two drives much better *
Posted by illiniranger
|
3 man rush was an interesting wrinkle. Seems Browne can’t process and make the correct throw*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Seems like our opponents convert every 4th down try*
Posted by bjl63
|
right call probably FG but ok enough going for it if give Luke a rollout run/pass. running Feagin up
Posted by Orangeillini
|
And that was dumb. Take the points there. Being up 16 makes it more or less over*
Posted by Mrap24
|
What have you seen in the first 56 minutes to think THAT was the right call there.
Posted by OB25
|
I thought forcing them to call timeouts was good. *
Posted by illiniranger
|
It was great. But then go kick the FG*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Yep.*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
should have called the first down play+
Posted by bbonb
|
Points end the game. Completely. I’m in a state of shock*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
Analytics brain got us there. Up 16 about a million things have to go right for them to tie*
Posted by illiniranger
|
I hated the conservative 3rd down call even if Valentine almost got it*
Posted by bjl63
|
Poor coaching today*
Posted by Chilango
|
Across the board. They completely took the day off*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
Probably the worst it’s been in many games*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
The screwed up handoff execution didn’t help.*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
Sapped Feagin’s momentum. Play over*
Posted by OWWDig
|
Can’t we stop pretending Feagin is a short yardage back. Too slow to get going*
Posted by bjl63
|
That’s not on Feagin*
Posted by Chilango
|
Take the points dumbass-*
Posted by Ron McDon
|
First time Bert has been wrong on 4th down since 2021. That was horrible.*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
That was a dumb play call. Just qb sneak it if you mare gonna go*
Posted by Mrap24
|
If only Feagin was a RB, he'd be good*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
What in the actual fuck*
Posted by OB25
|
Feagin is a bad short yardage back for a big player *
Posted by illiniranger
|
God damnit*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Ok I was fine with it before half, absolutely hated the conservative approach here.
Posted by OB25
|
Stupid. Throw the ball there. A first down and it. Incomplete and you still get 3*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
Bad spot by the ref on the Illini sideline*
Posted by Mrap24
|
the right call is probably FG here, but i'd be tempted to go*
Posted by snipes824
|
Do not play for a FG here*
Posted by bjl63
|
And of course we did. Do not like*
Posted by bjl63
|
Get to the line quicker. Can’t have that here*
Posted by Mrap24
|
It’s surprising how bad college teams are at getting the play clock down *
Posted by illiniranger
|
Everyone but the center *
Posted by biclops
|
With his cutting ability I thank maybe Valentine needs to be RB1 going forward*
Posted by bjl63
|
Get Luke another TD here. He deserves it*

rest of season Mike White offense 1980-82

TD here should seal it. Finish them!*

Just get a field goal and end this fucking mess of a game*

Clarke a bright spot today *

Well how about that. Great job defense*

Nice job finally. My kingdom for a 5 minute TD drive*

Nice play by Clarke there*

Please tackle *

The one time we needed a score or the kill clock…*
Posted by bjl63
|
2 and half minute drive. At least the punter is good*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Gotta catch that after Luke saved a nightmare*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Let the pass come to his body instead of getting the hands out*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Getting cute when your QB has two incompletions. Embarrassing*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
Why run a trick play there?
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
So we could punt it back to them*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
Hopefully Ryan Day takes it easy on us *
Posted by biclops
|
I think you lose that luxury when you're ranked unfortunately*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
At least hold onto the ball for awhile here*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
I do think Purdue’s offense is pretty good, but this is just appalling. The IU game wasn’t a fluke…
Posted by OB25
|
USC pretty much didn't punt. people lost sight of that in the win
Posted by snipes824
|
at least we held them to a 1-yard gain on the last play of the drive*
Posted by bbonb
|
Couple big plays that drive after our cutesy substitution crap. I don’t think it’s helping us *
Posted by illiniranger
|
The ref standing there staring at it and calls it a TD. LOLOLOL*
Posted by VIV
|
I initially thought he was going to spot it short… then his arms went up. LOL.*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
Is it bad players, bad schemes, bad effort?*
Posted by Mrap24
|
not effort. it's a lot of ok players in a bad scheme*
Posted by snipes824
|
A decimated secondary doesn’t help. I don’t think effort is the issue*
Posted by bjl63
|
Same play over and over with no adjustments. Just their drops*
Posted by OWWDig
|
Yup, they've just been fortunate Browne isn't very accurate*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
Yup. It’s painful. No qb pressure and no coverage *
Posted by OWWDig
|
Jacas is our only real sack threat and if you double him
Posted by bjl63
|
Miles another terrible angle too. We’re doing tons of bad team stuff*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
so clearly down live*
Posted by snipes824
|
Our defense is cover your eyes bad *
Posted by illiniranger
|
I’ve seen enough of Kaleb Patterson. He is brutal*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
This defense. Woof*
Posted by CWR10
|
Are we just not calling offensive PI? *
Posted by meanjeans
|
Shoulda been offensive pi*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
And a blatant hands to the face/offensive face mask call on the replay that wasn’t flagged
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
WHAT IS PATTERSON DOING?*
Posted by opossum jenkins

Jogging*

Love Mockabee getting owned trying to do that cutesy shit *

Blah. That was almost a game over if you make that tackle*

Make the fucking tackle
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
Just terrible defensive fundamentals*
Posted by Mrap24

If we’re being honest, Browne missing throws is the only thing that has stopped them.
Posted by OB25
|
2 more right after I posted this*
Posted by OB25

Misses and drops. We’ve been lucky on several of those.*

He really isn’t very good*

Classic Mockobee*

Ok we might have got fucked. Last play ended at 850. Play clock was at zero at 820*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
We should get that TO back*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Seems like they might be discussing it now
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
This better be home office calling this in and giving it back*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Hate using TOs like this. 3rd time today. *
Posted by VIV
|
Clock only went to 25 in the stadium, officials need to fix it*
Posted by illini222
|
These being B1G ones I doubt they even noticed*
Posted by bjl63
|
That’s brutal*
Posted by OWWDig
|
Seemed like there was something off with the clock there.*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
Do the odds of converting 3rd & 6 outweigh the odds of converting 3&11 by enough to justify a TO
Posted by Orangeillini
|
This is a pretty huge 3rd down so I think it does*
Posted by OB25
|
Get to the line and run the play*
Posted by Mrap24
|
WTF are we doing with our clock management?
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
4 TOs on offense not being ready. Not playing smart today*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
TO management is atrocious today*
Posted by bjl63
|
We’re still up 2 scores with the ball. Just please put the game in Luke’s hands as much as possible*
Posted by OB25
|
I would simplify this and do to the man cover 1 stuff we’re most comfortable with *
Posted by illiniranger
|
Cox and Bailey were so out of position.*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Barna got held. Terribly*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
No push at the line, bad angles. Got it all*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Gonna have to just outscore opponents apparently.*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
Yup. Not sure which coordinator I’m more upset with these days*
Posted by OWWDig
|
Our defense is officially dogshit *
Posted by assassin
|
Got dammit, defense. Not covering and not tackling
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
The defense is bad *
Posted by illiniranger
|
I hate to beat a dead horse but that’s why playing for a FG at the end of the half
Posted by bjl63
|
So no adjustments*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
The defense is absolutely atrocious*
Posted by UIHuskie
|
this defense. yikes*
Posted by biclops
|
A little defensive resistance would be nice*
Posted by Mrap24
|
This is just way too easy*
Posted by OB25
|
Lovett with another great special teams play. He’s gonna be good*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
Biggest drive of the game right here. Need to keep it at two scores *
Posted by illiniranger
|
Getting six on last two drives is a bit of a letdown*
Posted by bjl63
|
Feagin a minus in pass pro. Olano is a weapon *
Posted by illiniranger
|
That’s just fine big picture*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
Yeah. Just keep scoring. *
Posted by assassin
|
Blah. Olano is great though*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Great use of the TO*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Why are we having to burn a time out there? Come on.*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
Having to use 3 TOs for late play clock is about only real complaint with the O*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
We had plenty of time there. Snap was off*
Posted by Mrap24
|
still had 4 seconds left. I don't understand that one.*
Posted by Orangeillini
|
What a terrible play in 2nd down*
Posted by Mrap24
|
This camera placement stinks. *
Posted by assassin
|
that's a dime*
Posted by snipes824
|
I think the long corner blitz is designed to keep Browne in the pocket, not sack him
Posted by illiniranger
|
Agree. Just not sure in that situation they’d the right decision*
Posted by Mrap24
|
That’s exactly what it is. Keep Browne off the edge where he’s killed us*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
My plan here if I’m the DC and I’m up by 13 or more when they get the ball next is go man
Posted by illiniranger
|
That said, I don’t know how much we’ve practiced that, so maybe a pipe dream *
Posted by illiniranger
|
I have confidence Henry will figure something out. Browne will still have yards, tho.
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
Good half But man Henry is a really bad coordinator. He doesn’t seem to know when to do things*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Altmeyer 13/14 for 267 yds *
Posted by jjlocke923
|
We have 339 yards on offense*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
Bowick is freaking huge*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
He’s impressive*
Posted by CWR10
|
I legit thought it was like the 4th TE or something at first*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Sorry, but playing for 3 was stupid*
Posted by bjl63
|
Well hopefully that was discouraging for them. I’m still annoyed. *
Posted by assassin
|
Yep. No reason for the D to do those corner blitzes in that situation.*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
I’m just as annoyed by not playing for a TD*
Posted by bjl63
|
I’ll take a 2 score lead at the half and the ball after every time*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
38 > 34*
Posted by bjl63
|
Thank goodness Purdue is keystone cops. Bailed out Bert*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
I agree with everything we did on that drive*
Posted by OB25
|
Cuz it worked out by one second. Unnecessary to rely on luck against this defense*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
What was lucky about it? They also would have added at least 1 second if the clock had run out.
Posted by OB25
|
I woulda liked just a bit more urgency after the first play, but otherwise agree*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Girl same*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
If we go 3 and out and it becomes 24-17 at half, that’s a disaster.
Posted by OB25
|
So nice to have a coach that is competent at game management *
Posted by ATL
|
he’s just a really solid coach. If he coached another B1G team, we’d hate him*
Posted by bbonb
|
What a great play*
Posted by VIV
|
Purdue knows we're (1) throwing (2) to the sideline - and still can't stop it*
Posted by Orangeillini
|
Great execution,*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
If we had balls, perfect time to fake the quick out and chuck deep*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
That was a great though*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Gotta throw one OOB if this injury burns our last TO, don’t leave time for a Hail Mary*
Posted by OB25
|
Luke is so good at those throw back across the body. I never think he’s doing something dumb*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
I get the *idea* of what bret is doing there, not wanting to leave them time if you go 3 and out
Posted by snipes824
|
Every time we pass it's like a 7-on-5 drill*
Posted by Sammich
|
20 ypg and we're running down the clock. Why?*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
Perplexed we seem to be settling. At least give Olano a shot*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
I don’t get the conservatism*
Posted by bjl63
|
Guys, my fault. I had just opened ticket master to look for tickets next week. Ticket master is now
Posted by LovetheChief
|
Why would you use Ticketmaster?*
Posted by Dilbert
|
Where else should I look?*
Posted by LovetheChief
|
SeatGeek is the preferred market and linked with season tickets.
Posted by Dilbert
|
Tons of time*
Posted by opossum jenkins

so much for a relaxing 2nd half*
Posted by bbonb
|
What in the world was Miles Scott doing*
Posted by OB25
|
Tryna blow up a bubble screen or something*
Posted by Sammich
|
a random, late developing corner blitz in that situation? I donno*
Posted by snipes824
|
That was horrible, not even close to getting home.*
Posted by Toonces
|
lol miles. Not really sure what he was thinking*
Posted by Mrap24
|
He was playing zone it appears. But nobody behind him. Bizarre stuff*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
That's a terrible playcall by Henry*
Posted by UIHuskie
|
What a shitty play call*
Posted by reggiedunlop
|
Or, do… that*
Posted by IlliniOllie
|
That was annoying. Let’s score before the half.*
Posted by ATL
|
Man, this secondary.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Why's we play Boilermaker coverage there?*
Posted by Sammich
|
correction: don't stop them and score again*
Posted by Orangeillini
|
Wtf. These long slow corner blitzes. Why. Why why*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
I don’t understand a corner blitz at all in this situation. And we did it back to back plays!
Posted by John Coctostan
|
And what was that coverage, Miles?*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
Jeebus, guys. That was bad.*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
Browne is pretty terrible if he’s not running*
Posted by bjl63
|
Spoke too soon*
Posted by bjl63
|
Ross Ade looks like an ACC stadium *
Posted by ATL
|
Beatty has 137*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
I would’ve maybe called a TO there before the 2:00 mark*
Posted by bjl63
|
I'd agree If we hadnt used 2 already
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
We could easily score w no TOs*
Posted by bjl63
|
If Purdue wants to grind out the last 2 minutes I’m perfectly fine getting to half up 24-7 or 24-10.
Posted by OB25
|
Well shit*
Posted by OB25
|
POUR IT ON THESE SOCK-CUCKERS*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
Can we pull off the unprecedented quadruple up around halftime?*
Posted by OB25
|
Purdue defenders have laid some big hits on their teammates today*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
Lulz I think we broke Purdue*
Posted by illini21
|
Is 19.3 ypa good?*
Posted by gvibes

Ha i just looked that up too. Almost 20 per att is insane*

stop them and score again*

Goodness this game has turned. Extremely fast too. Fumble was so big*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Okay. Let’s stop them again and double dip.*
Posted by ATL
|
Seems like a reasonable plan. Let’s do that.*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
Time to do it again*
Posted by bjl63
|
Seems like we should run more RPOs*
Posted by gvibes
|
Beatty might break a receiving yardage record today*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
Shredding them through the air. *
Posted by VIV
|
And on the ground now too.*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
Man there is so much open space *
Posted by bjl63
|
Explosive plays are fun *
Posted by ATL
|
That was the RPO slant taking advantage of ILBs *
Posted by illiniranger
|
6 for them bit hard. Wide open lane*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Luke’s gonna have 600 yards*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Now let’s double dip*
Posted by ATL
|
I want a triple dip*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
Glad they’re passing so much *
Posted by illiniranger
|
Just kick through the end zone for fuck sake*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Olano’s been putting into the EZ every time. Why even try a squib there*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Wind?*
Posted by bjl63
|
He got a touchback going that direction after the last TD though*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
That was a 90+ yard TD drive? *
Posted by illiniranger
|
Started at the five after the penalty on the punt*
Posted by assassin
|
94*
Posted by OrangeSox

Luke’s 10/11 for 192 and 1. That’s not bad*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Arkin deleted a guy*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
Beautiful. Now don’t allow any points before half please*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Pick 6 would be fun*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Now stop them and double dip.*
Posted by ATL
|
Great job the TE blocking. Good play and read*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Nice cutback, good down block *
Posted by illiniranger
|
Well done *
Posted by ATL
|
And suddenly the counter works? I’ll take it.*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
I think that unintentionally hit to the backside. Great vision by 3 *
Posted by illiniranger
|
Yeah. Good point. Looked more like that was the case when watching the replay*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
Same concept as the Beatty TD I think.”
Posted by gvibes
|
I’d think about quick pitch down here as much as they’re selling out inside *
Posted by illiniranger
|
Bring basketball on grass back to W Lafayette. Don’t run again.*
Posted by ATL
|
The reason we have to run on 1st down is it opens up that deep ball *
Posted by illiniranger
|
just keep throwing*
Posted by Orangeillini
|
Stop wasting these first down plays, come on*
Posted by OB25
|
Good lord stop the insider runs*

Outside zone is there, bigly *

Thank you *
Posted by illiniranger

Ha, thanks dummies*
Posted by John Coctostan

They’re bringing ILBs and playing what looks like QTRS zone. Duke played man
Posted by illiniranger
|
Yep. Don’t get continuing to pound it inside. Get 5 on the edge a bit*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Might be good, might be bad. But I feel like Lunney is gonna go with a gadget play out of this TO*
Posted by OB25
|
pass blocking has been good. run blocking back to disaster status*
Posted by snipes824
|
We're really committed to not running the football. Inspiring*
Posted by OrangeSox

I just don’t understand Laughery being out of the game plan, unless he’s hurt.*

Made of glass*

Gotta be hurt*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
Agreed, he didn't look explosive last week at all*
Posted by OrangeSox

PU bringing these ILB *
Posted by illiniranger
|
Their front still dominating. Just throw it. And throw some more*
Posted by bjl63
|
I’ll say it again. Just keep passing. They can’t cover anyone and we can’t run block*
Posted by OB25
|
Stop running between the tacklrs*

Yeah gonna have to throw it 50 times *

I think it’s time for Henry to get a low mid major HC. Where did Jim Leonard go?*
Posted by LovetheChief

Great individual play bailed out another scheme issue there, the spy had no chance to stop Browne*

Critical drive. Must flip field position on them*

Great job Angelo. Very high on him in the future *

I’ll trade a first down in their half for popping the shit out of their QB like that. *

That was their gadget play/backup QB*

Love the hit. Hate celebrating failure.*

That hit was exactly what Scott did va IU. This time no flag. Such a dumb rule*

We’re not getting any 1-1 wins from the D front. Need someone to get quick pressure*

What a momentum swing. Crazy. Let’s go D!*

Great play. Ok, let’s get it going on defense*

We turn turnovers into touchdowns better than anyone in America*

Boom bitch*
Posted by illini21
|
Lol that was too easy*
Posted by gvibes
|
They are not good. Unlike Duke, can’t pass rush with DL *
Posted by illiniranger
|
That was some bad defense right there. That play shouldn’t go to the house*
Posted by bjl63
|
Well Purdue does have a comically bad defense*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
did their defenders run into each other?*
Posted by VIV

Yeah that was hilarious.*

hell yeah*

Yess. The only way we can get a stop!*

Hell yes. Needed that*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Obvious fumble. *
Posted by VIV
|
Clear fumble and recovery by us. Ball was on the way out when forearm is down.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
They better not cop out and call it incomplete*
Posted by OB25
|
Or they can say it’s too close with the forearm. Don’t think this goes our way*
Posted by OB25
|
Do we get the recovery there? Not sure the rule*
Posted by gvibes
|
Yeah, clear recovery by us *
Posted by illiniranger

Clear and immediate. Has to be both*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes

Ours! Has to be*

The only thing saving our D this season is turnovers *

oh shit that's out*

THAT’S A FUMBLE *

That is our ball*
Posted by opossum jenkins

That’s either a fumble or not a cach*

Fumble. Has to be our ball*

We just had 5 in the box vs a 6 man LOS *

I don’t think we can run the ball today, need to play defense, don’t think we’re going to fix alignm
Posted by illiniranger
|
The way we’re lining up they can run with mockabee if they want, too *
Posted by illiniranger
|
As said below we need to pass to set up the run
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
They’re doing what Duke did and run blitzing ILBs on every
Posted by illiniranger
|
I’d throw another screen pass and take some deep roll out play action *
Posted by illiniranger
|
It feels hopeless on defense. We have no answer for them*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
It looked bad but it was 1 drive and we stopped them on the first one. I can’t go that far yet*
Posted by OB25
|
2 plays later and it looks quite bad now*
Posted by OB25
|
Luke would have been better off running that.*
Posted by Mrap24
|
We weren’t getting the TD in either case. I’d rather Luke not take the hit
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
Is Laughery out today?*
Posted by WhitmansFolly
|
He was born with a soft tissue injury*
Posted by opossum jenkins
|
Pass the damn ball*
Posted by OB25
|
Agreed. Let Altmyer throw
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
That’s a 1 yard gain if it’s Feagin.*
Posted by OB25
|
Valentine is awesome when the line gives him the slightest opportunity*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
Looks like Altmyer is gonna need to have a big game*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
Need to pass to open the run. 55 is getting blown up*

55 playing OK, announcers need a talking point *

Are these announcers even at the game? Horrendous.*

Nice hesitation dribble drive there. Hard to stop that*

Fumble to touchdown. Lofl+

We’re getting dominated*

Holy shit, what a stop.*

Very concerning drive here. 50 yard bailout penalty, a 3rd and 15, and still can’t get a stop*

it's just a bad defense*

I’ve had enough Aaron Henry. Alignments terrible, defensive structure is terrible. *

I wish this board paid half as much attention to Aaron Henry’s shitty coaching

Toy can’t rush 3 and drop the rest with a QB this mobile. He’ll run fro 150 if it continues*

The best plays we’ve had so far are when we force Browne wide

|
Have never been impressed.*
Posted by voiceofreason

It’s the same things every game. We’re not accounting for gaps *

If they put as much effort into third down stops on 3rd and 15 as they did subbing late

Great job, defense

Rushing three left no one to get the QB*

I don’t either. Did they not have seven on the line? I thought there was a TE on line
Posted by gvibes

The LT was set too far back, I think
