Still a winnable game in Lincoln.

We look like Iowa

I’d rather look like Iowa in the first half of the first year under Matt Rhuke than I would Nebraska in the final year of Scott Frost.

Still processing my feelings. On one hand a win on the road in conference by 13 points. On the other hand this game was like watching a geriatric porn movie 

Eh, I’ve seen some pretty high octane, thorough and meticulous geriatric porn.

How many times have we lost a game like that over the last few years? We pulled out a victory when our O was trying to give the game away. Think this team can go bowling if we can put some semblance of an offense on the field. Can we maybe even win the West?? Given the state of the division I would say it's absolutely possible

As good, and as bad as we’ve looked all year, I’ve called a bowl game after every game. It’s going to happen. Don’t be surprised if we’re in contention for the west in the final two weeks as well. It may be more the west sucking than us being good, but I’ll take some late season excitement.

Ugly win, but a good win. On the road and the best we’ve played against a P5 team. We held Illinois to their fewest points all season. I hope everyone continues to step back from the ledge a little bit tonight. First big 10 win for Matt.

Still calling 21-20 Illinois here.

Nope

Come on guys, it’s funny.

The penalties or on purpose. We’re trying to extend this drive and run all the time out. :-)

I like that Matt Rhule actually looks like he’s involved in the game. It looks like he cares and like he’s attentive. Frost never seemed any of that.

they are going to score a touchdown here and then everybody can shut up.

This is stupid.

Is it mandatory for Big 10 football games to look like this? 

Just Big Ten West games. 

Same as a punt.

Shut up. We’re up two scores. I get it, we’re a WIP but give the team some freaking credit. We’re beating a BB coached P5 team on the road. That’s something. 

Thank you….

Who is this D Butkus guy? They’re acting like he’s Deion Sanders or something.

I have been to the last couple games in Champaign...granted that was under the last staff, so maybe we will see this team turning the corner.  The D is helping to win this game.

I’m sorry for you trauma. 

Good D! Cool out doomsdayers…

 Nebraska always finds a way to lose at Illinois...ugh.

Jesus. We’re still up two scores in the fourth quarter.

As I was saying about younger players…

Hahaha. Timeout. 

Nice play. 

This is why you play young players. They are hungry. We need that on offense.

What is your problem, Scott?
