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

Tip of the hat to the Illini. They have some players and this new coach seems good also. As decent are they already are, by end of the season the Illini might be a team nobody wants to play. Their last game of the season against NW might mean something to rest of the division.
 
Dang -- nice job of holding Canzeri out of the end zone there. One step from a TD.

Nice quick TO call by Kirk. Much better managing the clock this year.

Not there. Get to the line, run a sneak. If you don't get it use the TO. Burning it made Iowa throw the ball from the 1 yard line on 3rd. There was 24 seconds left when the timeout was burned.
 
Solid half, but man it's frustrating having the ball inside the 2 yard line a couple times and only coming away with 3 points.

Crazy thing is week 4 we had the 3rd best red zone offense. Changes quick.
 
CJ is stud, but Jerminic was wide open. Catchable but not very easy catch.
C.J. hasn't always had a lot of time to throw, but he's flat missed a couple today throwing behind guys, and part of that is because he's feeling the pressure from the rush, even when it's not there yet. Just needs to re-focus and stay tough.
 
This is feeling like another game 25 years ago in Iowa City, where we dominated the first half, missed an extra point in that game.........(I can't type, anymore.)
 
I don't get this.... Yeah leaving points off the board sucks, but we're killing these guys. Did you expect 28-7? If not this was a great half
Definitely not a great half. Lots to be disappointed with but some good positives as well.

Defense has been really good. CJ's mobility and deep ball have been excellent. The emergence of Jermanic has been great.

O line getting dominated, not so good.
 
Leaving with zero points after getting inside the 5 is becoming a bad habit. A legit bruiser at RB and/or a 320-pounder on the OL would make a huge difference.

Listening online in Italy.Can't believe it but what a pleasure hearing Dolph and Eddie in between visits to Maranello (Ferrari Museum) and arrival at a B and B in Padua (Padova to Italians). We're hoping to celebrate a big win with a bottle of luscious Montecarlo Rosso!

Baylor with 52 at half. I know Kansas is bad, but its a conference road game. 52 at half is insane.

Must be rough! Sounds like a great trip. Good for you guys.
 
Just got home from work, is Daniels playing at all? I heard Wadley came in when Canzeri got hurt.
 
What I said at half. You give Wes Lunt time, he is going to eat you alive. Absolutely no pressure on the QB. Gonna be a long half at this rate.
 
I rewound it and looked again. Sure looked like helmet to helmet to me. Wasn't a perfect angle, though. It happened fast, but that D-lineman came in high the whole way. Looked like targeting to me.
Rewind it to see if Koehn actually missed that PAT.....because it looked like he didn't.
