***OFFICIAL ILLINOIS AT MINNESOTA WE NEED TO BEAT BB IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[GopherJack]

How many times have we controlled our destiny in the BIG West over the past few years? We have delivered ZERO times. Cmon PJ, now is our time, starting with this game.

 

[mnsportsgeek]

This loss would hurt.

PJ's style just isn't going to cut it and will get back to being a basement team next year

Upper deck looks pretty empty on the enclosed side of the field. Everyone must be deer hunting.

 

[Iceland12]

Nice stop.

 

[mnsportsgeek]

Ok Offense let's get this game back under control.

 

[GopherFanatic19]

We get gifted losses by Wis and Neb and it always seems like we crap the bed

 

[cncmin]

Back to the run, run, pass offense.

*sigh*.

 

[mnsportsgeek]

Thanks for the gift.

 

[GringaGopher]

Can Matt Millan ever stop talking about Newton?

 

[Homerpalooza]

These announcers blow

 

[GophersInIowa]

The offense was too successful in the first half apparently

 

[mnsportsgeek]

NW 1st and 10 inside the 15.

 

[GopherJack]

Other than the TD, we need BSF to be a factor.

 

[Iceland12]

They stopped the blitz but terrible throw. Everybody looked to be covered.

 

[mnsportsgeek]

Nice throw, Athan...

I have said that as soon as those games were over. "Are we good enough to take advantage of the situation?" Things broke our way and we need to pull this out.

 

[SuperMeat]

That kneel to end the first half looks real great now doesn't it

 

[mnsportsgeek]

NW 1st and goal from the 2.

 

[Gilthorp57]

Back to the run, run, pass offense.

Someone let Sanford out. Locked Simon away

can’t have that, had to change it up

 

[Yah-E]

Yup, AK back to sucking level

 

[Iceland12]

Nope but this offense doesn't look like they could have put it in the End Zone either.

 

[short ornery norwegian]

Looks like Athan can only have one good half in a game. But it doesn't help that the entire offense can't find any rhythm.

 

[Pdiddy]

Butterfingers crooms. Guy can’t catch

 

[cncmin]

Other than the TD, we need BSF to be a factor.

has he been targeted in the second half? ILL seems focused on 5e run game and on DJ, and we aren’t doing anything about it.

 

[gopherbadgerman]

Yup, AK back to sucking level

It’s so bad

 

[skiumah1]

At some point you have to execute as players - The play calling isn’t great but these players need to make a play

 

[Iceland12]

Yup, AK back to sucking level

Makes you pretty giddy huh?

 

[GopherJack]

Man---there's gotta be QB's sitting on SEC benches that are better than AK or any of our QBs over the years. Why can't we recruit one to come here with guaranteed starting time?
