****Illinois Game Day Thread****

[Decked]

Reminds me of a chinander defense. No TFLs or drive killing plays. Just let them grind you down and pray for them to drop a pass or miss a field goal after a 5-6 minute possession. 

Without their second best player at WR you would think they would try and ratchet down some of the routes here

Altmyer is doing everything Shadeur didn’t.  He’s taking the quick on time throws that keep him clean instead of holding onto it so long looking for the hero throw this getting himself buried in the turf

 

[NebraskaHarry]

Is it just me or do they get a spot that is where they land and we get a spot of where they initially make contact that leads to a tackle. 

Of course that is happening. We're in the Big 10.

 

[lo country]

No pressure the last 9 quarters. None 

White needs to dial it up and be less concerned about a "great" run D.  We need a great D.

 

[Mierin]

That spot is bulls#!t

 

[Cornbred]

EFF these refs

 

[lo country]

And here come the dumb a$$ penalties...

 

[LumberJackSker]

Blew the whistle and kept giving him forward progress 

 

[DefenderAO]

Simply not an elite defense.  They just aren't.

 

[NebraskaHarry]

Big 10 refs suck.

 

[knapplc]

What the hell, Sherman?

That's just so stupid.

 

[krc1995]

And the punch.  Good grief. 

 

[Mierin]

You idiot. 

 

[huskerfan74]

We are just shooting ourselves in the foot. Self-destruct button has been pressed.

 

[PaulCrewe]

Yeah he punched the guy, but he did get kicked in the junk
