Technically I think if we beat the mildcats we’ll get the Quick Lane Bowl at 5-7 because there won’t be enough 6 win teams and our academics put us at the top of the list of 5 win teams.

Technically, I thought about a bowl at 5-7 with 2 road wins vs top 20 teams, but that's as far as I went.

Howdy all. Good start.  Where's this brandon peters been?

Good stop. Too early in a low scoring game to go for it on 4th down.
🤣🤣🤣🤣

Nice 4th down play on our part!

That’s what Williams can do!

LOL. Been around. Honestly forgot about this place till someone reminded me and was trying to get the old gang back together.

Not sure the announcers could have been more excited.

Don't kick to that Jones guy.

That turned around quickly.

And another 3 and out

Need a big stop here before half

Going into today, I'm counting 88 teams with 4 wins or more for 40 bowl games.
Title: Re: Business trip

A fucking INT 🤦🏻‍♂️ The one thing you can’t do before half
Title: Re: Business trip
Post by: Custard on November 20, 2021, 02:57:26 PM
Dodged a bullet there with the INT. It’s fun having a competitive, disciplined lunch pail type football team.
Title: Re: Business trip
Post by: Somewhere in Mn on November 20, 2021, 03:11:57 PM
We sure could use something to shut these announcers up.
Title: Re: Business trip
Post by: Custard on November 20, 2021, 03:22:34 PM
Defense is getting worn down. Was fun while it lasted.

Get a td. These announcers can tell us again about xxxx being in complete control of the game.

And we're back to bad Brandon peters. 2 throws that could have been Td's

First one I don't mind. We got out of a hole with a reception instead of maybe missing on a home run.

That’s a bullshit roughing the passer call.
Title: Re: Business trip

I understand by rule that was a roughing called correctly.. but i hate that rule
Title: Re: Business trip

Need to hold them to a FG here

By rule he was "defenseless". Correct call, but again i hate the rule
Title: Re: Business trip

Huge 3rd down. Defense has bent but not broke so far today.
Title: Re: Business trip

We got a chance now
Title: Re: Business trip

Shew

Staying alive. Needed to let them score so we can get out of shadows of our own goal posts.

Wasnt he still in the motion when he got hit ? I dont think he completed the follow thru.

Why waste a timeout. Just fucking go for it. Nothing to lose!

We played a pretty good game against a very good team at home.
We need a couple qbs for next year.

This. And yes a QB would make this team much better. The defense deserves better than this.

Pick 6 so Iowa beats the spread. Fuck.
Title: Re: Business trip

On the bright side, 1 game closer to the end of the Brandon Peters’ era.

Indiana native and a Michigan football player. I doubt they give a shit about Iowa. We just blow.

As bad as Williams was throwing the ball, I wonder how things would have worked out if he was our starting qb. He hasn't had enough touches this year.
Title: Re: Business trip
Post by: illinicalvin on November 20, 2021, 04:41:32 PM
The spread flipping 2x in a 4th quarter b/t these two teams is hilarious as I have to think some bettor in Vegas is having a meltdown.

Williams would be tearing it up if he was at a program like O$U or Alabama. He made a bad decision coming to Illinois. Might cost him a shot playing at a higher level honestly.

He would be down the rcvr depth chart at those 2. But he would have qbs who could hit him with a pass when he was in.

Can't call it a business trip. If this were private enterprise, it'd've folded decades ago.

Frustratingly winnable game.  The defense was pretty damn good, considering Iowa had the field position advantage all day.
Peters is wildly inaccurate even on short throws and, when he does hit his targets, they drop it.
FUUUUUUUUU

FUUUUUUUUU

He’s constantly throwing off his back foot bcuz he’s scared and afraid of getting hit. Dudes like a fainting goat. He straight up is afraid of his own shadow and had too many concussions, injuries, and hits to the head.
