  1. I’m rewatching the game. Some things.

     

    1. Prochazcha is keeping Corcoran on the field.

    2. It was weird to watch another team get Nebraska’d. Bad decisions, bad bounces, weird calls. We certainly did our own stupid stuff but some of the hard luck stuff Illinois experienced is what we’ve been living in for years.
    3 HH made some good passes on the first drive…and then returned to form.

    4. Did Lenhart play? I thought he was gonna play but I didn’t see him.

    5. D is gonna be pretty great as the young guys come into form. Seems like every week a different youngster pops. Prince was a beast.

    6. Gotta make a change at kicker pretty soon, don’t we?

    7. Without stupid penalties and fumbles we blow this game wide open.

    8. Is there something in the water that makes our players dumb? Scott is new and his penalty was so dumb, and so typical for our teams of late.

    9. I’m not the Tommy Hill fan this coaching staff is.

    10. Love seeing Coleman get a catch. He also had a nice block on the Kemp play inside the 10.

    11. HH running out of bounds to set up 3rd and 1 is so mini-Joe Daily ridiculous.

     

     I think that’s all.

    Yes we have had problems in the past. This year has been much cleaner. Watching the game last night the movement I saw in the O line wasn't the raise up and step back movement I usually see. Rather it was lifting their head to hear the new play call while the defense points out the movement to the refs. Like most Big Ten crews these officials were clueless as they threw the flag.

     

    One place I will absolutely agree is just the terrible officiating. When you are a bad team, playing another bad team, you get the bad officiating crews.

     

    I'm not one of those people that thinks they are out to get us...they are just bad. BUT there was crazy holding going on from both of their tackles. On the only Illinois TD the LT put on a master class on how to get called for holding....and got away with it. And then when they did call him for holding it really wasn't. :dunno

    If HH was from another state, fans would not defend him like they do.  We all know how this goes.


    This x 1000000.

    Local kid, running the option (kind of). Triggers some glory days response.

     

    I did think in the first half he was making reads in the passing game, and had made some gains w accuracy…until the 2 minute drive. Second half he was back to….normal.
     

    HH is Tim Tebow on the 2011 Broncos…but without the divine intervention.

    Listen to what Rhule said about the Illinois players yelling the same calls we use for the O linemen and causing them to lift up to hear the new call. Thats what he was talking to the refs about in the 4th qtr. Not saying our O line are world beaters but this isn't all on them.


    I don’t really buy this bc we had problems w false starts before this game.
