Game Thread: Illinois vs Kansas

[Second place is 1st loser]

For some reason, they have no problem getting into the backfield.

???? The pass pro has been really good. The QB is either missing reads or guys aren't getting separation. He's had plenty of time to get something done.

 

[KBLEE]

BB is being a little too conservative, I do believe.

And where are all those fake hand-offs, and Altmyer bootlegs? Those QB runs were so effective in 2023.

We thought we'd catch them sleeping by running Laugherty up the middle.

 

[New Creation]

Right at Patterson, but no foul! They are running right up the gut.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

THAT IS A TERRIBLE DPI CALL

 

[FloridaMan]

You don't reward the team that underthrew the ball!!!! Thank you for wiping that off.

 

[Mr. Tibbs]

It’s the same as last year, Luke isn’t the guy, as much as I wish he was.

agree 99%

 

[DeonThomas]

[Ryllini]

There you go refs

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Laying an egg in front of a rare sellout.

 

[PopChampaign]

- Two possessions this half.
- Six plays.
- Zero pass attempts/completions.

Crazy

 

[SuperMetroid]

Thank you! Shut up Liepold

 

[ILL-CONCEIVED]

Leipold > Bielema. Sad, Kansas of all places has surpassed us.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

- Two possessions this half.
- Six plays.
- Zero pass attempts/completions.

Perplexing.

If we can somehow get a stop or turnover, we’re still in it.

 

[PopChampaign]

“Kansas winning the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball”…. That’s game we gotta change that asap

 

[Ramrod2010]

Laying an egg in front of a rare sellout.

As is tradition.

 

[PapaKvells]

DL is oatmeal this half.

 

[TheGMan]

No reason for Kansas not to go for it here

 

[skyIdub]

Your OC has to put the QB in a position to succeed by getting in a rhythm with play calling. We had that rhythm the first two possessions.

Luke is being forced to make plays and he’s not making them.

 

[and 69 others]

6.4 YPC vs. 2.3 YPC

 

[New Creation]

Bad spot, that’s a first with that spot

 

[FloridaMan]

These spots are horse bleep!!!! He gave them a full ball length there.

 

[Mr. Tibbs]

they get 6 or 7 per rush

we get 1 or 2


you think we will lose the time of possession battle

 

[SuperMetroid]

Challenge that garbage

 

[BWBW]

Oh boy

 

[PopChampaign]

I knew it
