Game Thread: Illinois at Nebraska

[eas23]

Where is freaking head why did not Syd advance the ball does he not know the rules........SMH

He was trying to catch Nebraska sleeping thinking it was a dead ball.

 

[1970 John]

Well, I’m wrong, way wrong. This has to stop.

 

[Mr. Tibbs]

lots of time yet

 

[Clngpl94]

For an Oline that was supposed to be horrible they're handling our Dline that is supposed to be playing elite!! This could be pathetic...

I think he knows the rules…I think he was trying th be a little stealthy, wanting Nebraska team to start leaving the field

 

[skyIdub]

Please settle down these play calls and control the ball.

 

[IlliniForceOne]

We are struggling early because many of the little things that have gone right this season, are not going right at the moment.

Missed tackles, DeVito stepping out of bounds, TO call during a made field goal, missed PAT, etc.

 

[IlliniKat91]

They're at home and against all odds playing for a 3-way tie for 1st in the West. Nebby has a reason to get up for this one. We need to forget our own press clippings and get going.

 

[IMPE ALL STAR]

Once again Lunney gives up points by going backwards when we are in FG range. Come On Dude. .

 

[IlliniReb]

I think he was trying to lull Nebby into thinking the play was over.

I believe if it’s blocked and the ball goes beyond the line of scrimmage you can’t advance the ball. Should have been blown dead.

They are getting the benefit of not having holding called today, but your point stands regardless.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Just how bad was Scott Frost?

 

[JimILL75]

Bad coaching decisions today. Lets hope they don't effect the players. Trying to be to cute. We are passing they ball 8/8 as they are stopping the run.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

We just handed them the momentum and put ourselves in a terrible position.

We’ll see what we are made of here.

 

[UCantHideYer]

Not our game, but while the refs are allowing the Husker holds, maybe drop back another in coverage

 

[fatlard]

Why haven’t we solve the TE issue?

 

[dbeverly26]

Not a ton of discipline on d today. Safety tried to jump the route and failed on that TD.

 

[LFOD]

That’s why we’re throwing the ball

 

[Rusty]

This is a team that read press clippings, lost it's edge within the bye week and isn't used to having a target on its back. Luckily only the 2nd quarter and still time to start playing the way we got to 6-1

 

[New Creation]

Haven’t heard Bryant’s name at all today

 

[altgeld88]

Good Lord. How can you allow that off the edge?!

 

[Stevegarbs]

This is bad.

 

[sully]

Allowing the huskers sold out crowd back into the game was such a mistake

and Devito gets sacked as I type this

 

[KBLEE]

Pitiful

 

[aaeismacgychel]

That one is on Devito. Needed to know he has to go to the hot route on 0 blitz
