Probably on the helmet to helmet in the 1st half that wasn't called. He looked like he was shaking some cobwebs loose. I'm guessing no concussion, but it is possible
If that left side was playing better I might agree with them.Don’t want to move Adams to RT … They like having that left side the way it is …
This was Altmyer's first career road start. Let's remember where the bar is for Illinois quarterback play.
Exactly. He is one of the few bright spots at this point in the season with a very high ceiling. We are not, and should not be, in a position to rely on him to carry this team. That should be the offensive and defensive lines and linebackers, all of which have been abysmal to this point.This was Altmyer's first career road start.

Leonard isn't dumb enough to hang this mess on his record. The plausible deniability of an analyst role goes both ways.leonard but unfortunately can't get him on the field

I don't understand how Crisler got that assignment in the first place. You're telling me Seth Coleman wasn't clowning him in every practice?
We got to beef up that line. We’re unfortunately getting manhandled by opposing defenses.What about moving Adams to tackle? We know coaches don't want to do it, but I have a hard time believing a freshmen and a redshirt are going to magically solve the problem.
Doesn't seem like a reps/technique thing. He just doesn't have the flexibility, fluidity, lateral movement of a tackle.Our LBs aren’t clowning anyone right now …
Crisler has barely practiced though until like day 2 of game week for Toledo … I will say that … And he looked A LOT better in the spring …
However - through 2 games … It isn’t working … Time to pull the plug …
He should be livid and it definitely needs to be sent to the league. Luke was already wrapped up, defender led with the helmet straight to the helmet. Not sure how it wasn't reviewed, but shots like that are pretty much the definition of what they're trying to get rid of in the game. So no clue why it wasn't at least reviewed by the booth.That hit is going straight to the league office … Bret LIVID … Inexcusable that wasn’t called …
So, you're saying we need to find our Rambo?Worst part we didn't just look bad, we looked outdated. Our defense versus the Kansas offense was like one of us taking out an F119 with a bow and arrow!
At least the rest our B1G are pretty primitive too.
They're targeting poor Dylan Rosiek on every play.I get the disappointment about the defense. Don't think it's all on Henry. The LB group just isn't good enough. Massive holes on the depth chart without Darkangelo and Hart
Feels like 2-10 ish type Lovie season coming.

He was awesome at guard this should be an easy decision.
Noticing a bit of a tendency to get happy feet and start climbing in the pocket if the play goes too long. He ran into some tackles that way.
That said he is playing pretty damn well overall and I'm glad we have him for 2 more season.
I have no patience with those. I’ll watch us struggle against superior skills, athleticism, coaching, game calling, etc but will eventually tune out or walk out of games we choose to throw away on our own. Unsportsmanlike penalties aren’t mistakes. They’re ugly self-inflicted sabotage driven by arrogance.The best team won. That said this is two straight games with bone head unsportsmanlike penalties extend drives for our opponent. Those are like turnovers. Coaches gotta fix those stupid mistakes. We were lucky we overcame those last week.
I get giving up passing plays with all everyone we lost in the draft, but Purdue gave up 116 on the ground to (only 26 in the first half) to Fresno, and we gave 262 today. Run fit is coaching, and Henry just doesn't have the know how, to show his guys how to stop the run.I get the disappointment about the defense. Don't think it's all on Henry.
