Game Thread: Illinois at Nebraska

[punchabove33]

Nebraska punter decided to go for distance rather than a good placement kick. Out punted his coverage. Nice going!

 

[LoveLovie]

Set up for a great chance..let’s get 7

 

[Illini1977]

Oooh! Just the kicker to beat it looked like

 

[LFOD]

Did Beatty make up for the fumble?

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Nebraska is nothing

We got us a punt returner! Let's take advantage, get a TD drive, and shift the momentum. Love this Illini team, generally disciplined and well coached.

Have we played Valentine at all? He seems to be our sparkplug. I would screen it to him and let him take one to the house...

Did Beatty make up for the fumble?

no lol. That fumble CHANGED everything in the game. I'm not fully sure if he runs that back for an actual TD that it makes up for it

 

[SuperMetroid]

Would love to see a little Valentine as a change of pace

He gets a 2nd good return and I'll say yes. That was a pretty rough fumble.

Franklin still in tent

 

[BWBW]

IMHO, Valentine may play soon. TD time!

 

[punchabove33]

Hoping Zakari Franklin is ok.

Yeah, not good. Not good at all.

 

[punchabove33]

Franklin still in tent

which means, he might come back..

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Oh damn, now Priestly is down? The injury bug is nasty tonight. Those are 2 of our better players down, yeesh

 

[madillini4]

This would be a great game to play on a Saturday night *shrugs*

 

[punchabove33]

Spark plug is in!

 

[bjp84]

Is Feagin and Valentine hurt?

 

[aaeismacgychel]

That was the ugliest looking toss play I've ever seen and I also have no idea how he got 5yds

 

[superfan]

Valentine is an electric runner

 

[RoundBalcs]

There he is!!

 

[BWBW]

Valentine

 

[skyIdub]

It's about GD time for Valentine.
