DISASTER!

This ridiculous scheduling has bitten Illinois right where it hurts the most. This loss puts the Illini at 5-5 with two games with ranked opponents to go. This game is reminiscent of the Washington State game in Chicago years ago.

Too worked up to be logical now. Someone else needs to be in charge of scheduling.

Not to worry! Illinois WILL win it's last two games and finish 7-5 and go to a bowl game! Gunther had no other options but to schedule this game and when he did.

I dont blame the scheduling. I blame our useless co-defensive coordinators. They both need to be fired. Its time to pressure recievers instead of letting them run 10 yards before there is a defensive back. The offense can't always put up 33 points. Its time for the defense to step up and pressure opponents.

eric you are totally wrong. Ron Guenther is the best AD in the Country! Just ask Chancellor Herman.
