We play so hard too, i love the effort and tenacity. It indicates confidence to me.
Illinois 31, Nebraska 24 OT Postgame
Yeah, I was in a group chat with friends and was flabbergasted by this choice..... happy it worked in our favor. Minimal rest for their Defense resulted in a quick score for our offense..... made me happy!
More so the announcers IMO...
Tim Brando is ancient and was always pretty stale, but i liked the analysis from his partner.
Sooo...
safe to say that "first road game" curse is broken?

I will not soon forget this OT. Feagin and Luke a hot knife through Husker butter in two plays. Then 3rd and 42 and 4th and 29 for Riola after AHen sends the dawgs to smother him. Rosiek’s final blitz was savage. Untouched through the line.
The offense really opens up with the receivers we have. Luke tonight compared with the first three quarters v Kansas is unrecognizable.
In Bert We Trust.
What a huge win.

That was fun!
Whenever we're ranked #24 going on the road to a team ranked #22, the rest of the world sees it as #124 going on the road to face #2.
My 3 stars of the game
1) Melvin Priestly - I'm ready to eat crow for my doubts at RT. This guy is an absolute road grader
2) Xavier Scott - Always in the right spot at the right time
3) Altmyer - Commanded the huddle, made adjustments at the line. Everything you want in your QB. Tough SOB
But this was a whole team win, you could go with your pick of the lot

He's just corny with the entire trying to imitate and look like Mahomes deal.
I'm sorry bud you're 19 not 12, you gotta be your own person.
Tell him you want one of these Goose Islands November releases in payment..... give him this list.This is so much fun! Yesterday, a neighbor came over to our condo for an HOA board meeting. We don’t know each other very well yet, but he knew my husband was an Illini fan (might be because we have and Illini flag, welcome sign, and welcome mat on our front porch). He wore a red Nebraska t-shirt to troll my husband. I asked him if he’d like to place a wager on the game and give me the points. He was very cocky and said sure so we bet a beer. I’m going to be very happy accepting that beverage.

I know a lot of us will hate to acknowledge it but that’s two iconic victories in the slant Illinois helmets…
I’ll report back when I watch it back. Couldn’t watch live tonight.

Also I almost always agree with Jeff Johnson’s takes but I thought Brando and Gardner called a good game.

And I’m good with letting it ride another week in Happy Valley. Don’t mess with a good thing.
I love how altmyer seemingly always wants to go for it on fourth down.

As does every great QB.
Lunney as well. He's not my favorite at times but he called a masterful game tonight.
Rhule has never beaten a ranked team, which is a wild stat to think about.
Ya… like Corey Feldman and Michael Jackson. Down to headband and haircut. Hype is probably the last thing that kid needs right now.
Although on our end altmyer must’ve seen an old picture of Jeff George, and thought it looked cool. Anyone else see the resemblance and make that connection, or just me?
