****Offical Illinios vs Iowa Game Thread****

[Tommy Gavin]

1. Our offensive line is getting worked.
2. CJB has a HUGE arm.
3. Heckuva cut by Canzeri!

 

[dbq hawk 32]

Illini have jumped over the snapper on both extra points now...

 

[WWDMHawkeye]

Love that call. Would really like to see us work more RB screens into the offense, especially against these ultra-aggressive defensive fronts.

 

[hawkeye122671]

Nice block by Jerminic Smith on that td.

 

[yerpHAWK]

Didn't know guitar hero was still a thing. Lol.

 

[percyland]

Illinois defenders still jumping over the snapper on extra points.

 

[bagdropper]

J Smith is going to be a star.

That's crazy talk. Everybody knows Jay Scheel should be playing.

 

[swishen3's]

Illini defensive line is very fast and physical

 

[DougFHawkeye]

Illini have jumped over the snapper on both extra points now...

Isn't the rule you can't jump onto another player? I'm not sure.

 

[PHXIowaClub]

Good drive. Need to throw to set up the run today. Glad to see a screen pass. Need to move Beathard around. Shotgun with a rollout to the right and left.

 

[swishen3's]

Illinois defenders still jumping over the snapper on extra points.

Exactly. Didn't think that was legal??

 

[mustang_horsepower]

Side note: like James Franco smashing the guitar hero guitar

 

[DougFHawkeye]

TOP Iowa 16:20 Illini 5:50

 

[naturalmwa]

How is Alabama's offensive line this year?

 

[yerpHAWK]

Go texas.

 

[uniFIGHTuniFIGHT]

Nice Jewell! Their D has to be gassed. Step on it.

 

[naturalmwa]

Didn't know guitar hero was still a thing. Lol.

I kept waiting for a reference to his wardrobe malfunction.

 

[dbq hawk 32]

Isn't the rule you can't jump onto another player? I'm not sure.

Nope.

Can't be boosted by your own player, can't contact snapper for 1 second after the snap, and cannot attempt to leap over linemen.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Didn't know guitar hero was still a thing. Lol.

Apparently that and Rock Band are coming back for next gen.

 

[Vroom_C14]

One more hour boyz

Go Hawks!

Is it not a penalty for leaping over the OL on a fg? Why is KFC not bringing it up?

Defenders cannot jump on a teammate or be boosted up by a teammate in order to be higher to block the field goal attempt. Doing so will be a penalty and if you block the kick or the offense misses the kick, they will get a 15-yard penalty and a re-kick opportunity. In addition, players cannot hurdle or jump over the offensive line to block a kick. That infraction will be assessed a 15-yard penalty as well.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

cannot attempt to leap over linemen.

Well then Illinois is guilty as f-......maybe the refs should throw a flag?

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Jerminic Smith has really grown just between last week and this week

 

[yerpHAWK]

HKC cmon bro.

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Iowa hasn't been able to break any Illini tackles today after the catch it seems

 

[mustang_horsepower]

Jerminic Smith has really grown just between last week and this week

Agreed. Continue getting him involved today

 

[dbq hawk 32]

damn 55 yard punt!

 

[jhawk23]

NEED TO GET CJ OUT OF POCKET. SO OBVIOUS, GD.

 

[naturalmwa]

I think the refs just advanced that punt a yard for the bad guys.

 

[hawkeye ball]

Agreed. Continue getting him involved today

Agree. The reps with the first team this week must have been great for him. 109 yards.

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

It'd be nice to get a pick 6 off of Lunt or even a turnover deep in Illinis territory

 

[swishen3's]

Down it at the 4 and ref puts in on 5

 

[WWDMHawkeye]

I think these TV guys are doing a fine job, but "ILLINOISE"? Seriously?

 

[dbq hawk 32]

I think the refs just advanced that punt a yard for the bad guys.

Yep, and how the hell can you screw up the spot on a play like that

 

[Tommy Gavin]

Is the color guy really pronouncing it Illinoise?

 

[spiderland]

Turnover here, D.

 

[like-woahh]

I think these TV guys are doing a fine job, but "ILLINOISE"? Seriously?

At least Jermaine Smith is having a fine game. I wonder if Terry Stross and Marvin Mcknight gave him some pointers before the game.

 

[mustang_horsepower]

So North Carolina whipped these guys pretty bad? Are they that good this year or we just playing to Illini level today? Or are just on par with Illinois? Hard to analyze today....

 

[HawkeyeFever62]

Is the color guy really pronouncing it Illinoise?

Yes he is

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

I think these TV guys are doing a fine job, but "ILLINOISE"? Seriously?

I know...It's Illannoy

 

[hawkeye ball]

King been awfully quiet so far today. Look for that to change.
