Re: 9/22 LaTech at Illinois game thread
This is ridiculous. Our defensive players need to learn how to hit someone. Miss tackle after miss tackle. I thought it was just bad coaching, but this is really starting to piss me off. I expected our offense to have a harder time scoring in this game, but I'm embarrassed by our entire team right now. I'm glad they were fumbling to begin with (and a nice interception) but I think that has ended for the night. Either we have to find some offense or we need to turn the ball over more as we can't play bend don't break since we are breaking.

Re: 9/22 LaTech at Illinois game thread
Hopefully we force some punts in 2nd half so we can find out.

Exactly. Thanks goodness for Ryan Allen.

Re: 9/22 LaTech at Illinois game thread
26 plays by our offense. That's unusual for us this year.
1-4 on 3rd down. Illinois is 5-8.

Too many. (I'm assuming by "they" you mean LA Tech)
Re: 9/22 LaTech at Illinois game thread
At least you are not having to sit in the car and listen to it in the heat. actually from the radio it sounds like the D is playing a little better.

The D no doubt is playing better. Tackling hasn't been great, but this one is on the O in the 2nd quarter. Normally I'd be ecstatic to be leading a B1G team at half. But not this year, and not to a team that we are clearly better than... we should be blowing them out

Our D is a little better except we are sucking at tackling. Our offense needs a lifeline.
