anyone can do an eye test and draw their own conclusions .......all I know is we are tied on the road against the # 9 ranked team at halftime by the score of 7-7.................

both teams had great 1st drives in the game and now it's just a game of misplays , penalties and James Franklin running around like he needs to change his tampon.............settle down there nittanypicker.......change it at the half........

I still don't think that was a intentional grounding pass by Luke and I think BB agrees with me........

Also , in hindsight we should have had Luke under center with that 1st down at the psu 2 yard line......hindsight I know ....I really really do.........

Last week the pass opened the run. Second half keep feeding feagin and mix it up with valentine, and let the run open the play action into 1 on 1 coverage. Preferably deep balls. Could work.

Their qb is not impressive. Stop run and let our dbs have some fun

Absolutely atrocious play calling right before half.

Can’t decide who had a worse first half:
MLB’ers or the O-line.

Play calling? If Kreutz doesn't snap the ball into the third deck, we're probably up 14-7. That put 3/4 of the playbook in the trash. Combine that with two false starts and a missed field goal...not sure where you take issue with the coaches?

Our receivers fell down making cuts. Need different cleats?

Come on illini fans. Get rid of that defeatist attitude that’s been in the CU air too long. We could go undefeated this year.

Also, for the past 2 1/2 games I’ve been hearing our fans talk about the poor playcalling of our opponents. It’s about time to give our defensive team its due credit. It is only for due to our great defensive effort that makes it look that way.

We should've gone up by 7 with our starting D-Line only play two series, we'll rested. Just give it to your 250lbs back 3 times under center! Besides that pretty good, trouble stopping the run and that could've been alleviated with 7 at the end there.

One…… running that bad snap play from the shotgun.

Two…. not running on 3rd down to run the clock down.
