“Minnesota has an offensive scheme they believe in. This past week, their QB played outstanding ball. Good skill guys. Two good receivers. TE’s are good. Big OL. It’ll be a challenge for us.”

“I had a chance to coach Antoine Winfield Sr. way back in the day at Ohio State. He was an outstanding player. His son is an outstanding football player too.”

In reference to Minnesota’s wide receivers, “These guys are bigger, play the ball well. When you have a running game that is working you get in a lot of one-on-one situations.”

both Lovie and the OC said Peters is their quarterback...Lovie says star recruit Isaiah Williams, who got some snaps versus huskers, knows he is the QB of the future.
 

Illini offensive coordinator on Minnesota:

Do you watch the film from last year?

"You watch it a little bit, but it’s a whole new coordinator. Same background, but he’s more aggressive than what they did in the past. So you probably rely more on this year's film bc those are the guys you're going to face. Some of the guys are different. You look at it for reference points, but it’s not what you really study."
