Man that was awesome

ChiefKingfisher · 2024-10-19T18:05:35-0500

Defense stepped up big. I think it’s safe to say that the second half last week was a fluke.

Bowl eligible playing with house money next week. Gotta play sharper

Yeah, we need to stop rushing the field

Literally my only complaint, haha. Also, due to where our students are, the field rushes are SO slow and thus a bit too lame. Three times in a year is enough, haha.

With that said, GREAT bounce back game after Purdue and a wonderful job to rise to the occasion for this special game. Let’s go give Oregon our best shot.

Is valentine hurt??

Congratulations to team and coaches!

Defense improved a lot.

It is always a pleasant surprise to beat the Champions of the West.

illini80 · 2024-10-19T18:08:42-0500

I’m just shocked! After the missed opportunities and the late 2q drive, I thought we were in trouble. Heard bits and pieces on the radio, but now I’m ready to sit down and watch.

Great job players, coaches, and fans!

I-L-L !!!!!!

MaineIllini · 2024-10-19T18:08:54-0500

Wonderful, just wonderful. The occasion and the history, the promotional effort, the weather, the uniforms and helmets, the solid, complete victory over Michigan, and the first-rate CBS production and national coverage. Wonderful across the board.

TentakilRex · 2024-10-19T18:09:00-0500

BTW when was the last time the Illini had two QBs that are better than Michigan's starter

dsg · 2024-10-19T18:09:14-0500

That was beautiful! Never thought we would hold them to 7 points.
Perfect ending to a perfect day!

Mr. Roberts · 2024-10-19T18:09:17-0500

Bowl.eligible!
Michigan to be unranked!
3 victories.vs. ranked opponents!
Wow. Just wow.

Battle89 · 2024-10-19T18:10:01-0500

Oh this post game show. Absolutely ripping Michigan apart. Raging about Tuttle and the staff that played him the whole game.

Pikeillinifan · 2024-10-19T18:10:49-0500

Such a huge win, I love that we have a competent team that has a shot to win most games.

Josh and Coach B have done an amazing job with the game day experience and marketing.

Nine wins are there for us, let’s get there!

Illini2010-11 · 2024-10-19T18:11:09-0500

And there were people thinking Illinois should have been 10 point dogs (wont name names here).

Great win on CBS, in front of a national audience. This win is huge on so many levels. Sure there is stuff to clean up, but it was so refreshing to soundly beat a ranked opponent at home.

Let's make a game in Eugene!

ChiefKingfisher · 2024-10-19T18:11:16-0500

If anyone looked at our schedule prior to the season and predicted a 6-1 start, we would’ve thought they were out of their mind.
