The Illini will be down 14-10. Collapse to ensue.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:16 PM ^
I have a feeling we're looking at a 42-10 final or thereabouts.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:16 PM ^
It even could've been 17-7
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:16 PM ^
OSU is playing terribly, yet will go into half up 4. Come on, Illini, you're killing what could be something special
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:16 PM ^
could that be the worst trophy ever?
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:17 PM ^
Have you seen the Paul Bunyan Trophy?
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:19 PM ^
We didn't kill Paul Bunyan.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:27 PM ^
Though MSU assaulted him and took his ox
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:49 PM ^
The farm animals up there.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:26 PM ^
a turtle? seriously?
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:40 PM ^
if they win it.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:18 PM ^
I just really dislike everything about Ohio State. Fans, coaches, players, colors, coach's transitions glasses.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:41 PM ^
of uncle dads and aunt moms...
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:19 PM ^
Seems pissed
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:19 PM ^
Well, I'm watching it so I thought I'd share:
US 6
Eur 4
However, Europe is up in all six matches today.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:20 PM ^
"If you're Illinois you're really where you want to be." WTF?
Having blown a possible 7pt lead and giving up a long TD drive as the half closes out? How I hate you BTN announcer guy.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:22 PM ^
Does any team 'want' to be down at the half after squandering chances like the Illini did? Not to mention the butter like defense put up on OSU's last drive.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:22 PM ^
lol i agree.. they could easily be up 7 or 10 pts.. Seeing Illini option give OSU problems i can't wait to see what ours will do to them
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:22 PM ^
To be fair, that statement does not break the top-50 dumbest statements made today by the announcers. It at least has a kernel of logic to it.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:21 PM ^
And this has probably been said before, but that OSU commercial just seems dumb to me. Not only should Ohio U technically be the default "Ohio" school, but it just seems like you could highlight your school more effectively than pictures of people spelling a four-letter word out.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:24 PM ^
Five letter words are for their graduate school
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:28 PM ^
Our commercials talk about how we've sent guys into space and have a cutting-edge medical center.
OSU's commercials talk about how the ability the spell a four-letter word makes them feel connected.
You can't make this stuff up.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:24 PM ^
Buckeye loss in the Big Ten and a Michigan blow out win be so beautiful today. Please Zook keep your illini marching down the field.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:29 PM ^
have to be some of the more awkward high fives delivered. Tiger and Stricker are getting their rear's handed to them: down 5 thru 8 holes.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:41 PM ^
How can you alternate between football and golf? Watching golf after football seems like massive sensory deprivation.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:44 PM ^
I know but it's like putting 'Shuffle' on the IPOD. Keeps things fresh. TP down.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:29 PM ^
When the defensive back is standing in front of the receiver on a slant route, do not throw the ball
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:31 PM ^
50 people arrested in Dallas before Red River Shootout. ESPN - tell us what we want to know - how many testicles have been ripped off???
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:33 PM ^
What are Michigan State players doing in Dallas?
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:56 PM ^
Little Brother trying to man up.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:33 PM ^
The street parties that precede the Texas-Oklahoma football game resulted in nearly 50 arrests by Dallas police Friday night.
All but one of the 48 arrests that police made in Dallas’ West End and Greenville Avenue areas were for public intoxication. The other was for marijuana possession.
Authorities also reported that about 300 citations were issued to parking scofflaws throughout the night.
Police didn’t provide an estimate on the size of Friday’s crowd in the West End but said it was smaller than expected because of larger than normal crowds at alternate entertainment areas on Greenville Avenue and Victory Plaza.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:32 PM ^
He had Heisman talk early.. Florida State fans should really get to making a Harris4Heisman yakety sax.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:37 PM ^
I am pretty suprised. He has thrown ALOT of interceptions this year. I really expected better from Harris this year.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:33 PM ^
If Oregon defeats Stanford tonight they may leapfrog both OSU and BSU after OSU's struggles in the first half and BSU's weak opponent.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:39 PM ^
If OSU dominates the second half, no one will care what happened in the first.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:46 PM ^
It depends how well Oregon does.
If they make a statement against Stanford, then Pryor's INT and shitty completion percentage against Illinois will have some people wondering whether they're the #2 team in the nation.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:46 PM ^
"Rose Bowl".
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:38 PM ^
Carissa Miller does not look good.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:40 PM ^
That appeared to be a seven iron bump and run on the OSU kick. (Golf on the brain) Worked out very well. Cue Illini implosion
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:41 PM ^
What the hell is this game? I've been watching for five minutes (actual time,not game time) and have seen three turnovers. There is some obnoxious piped-in music in the stadium. The officials don't have a clue. They can't even spot the ball without a videoconference.
Miami just threw a pass and the receiver made a questionable reception; Miami hurried to the line and got the snap off but the refs blew the play dead to review it. Ugh.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:42 PM ^
Rushed three and got to the QB w/ holding to boot.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:43 PM ^
Pryor is hurt.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:44 PM ^
He just fell on his cell phone
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:44 PM ^
Didn't look serious. Turf monster got him
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:44 PM ^
Doesn't look to be very serious, but boy would OSU be in trouble if it were.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:45 PM ^
can give that miniscus a pretty good jolt.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:44 PM ^
TP is down.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:44 PM ^
Pryor is down. Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to have him play so long last week, when they could have easily gotten his backups time.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:45 PM ^
will our defense be able to handle Ohio State the way Illinois defense has this in this game? They have really done a great job of keeping Pryor quiet.
October 2nd, 2010 at 1:50 PM ^
Pryor hasn't looked great, but was looking like he could break out soon until the injury. I've been really impressed though by how well Illinois has shut down the running game (other than Pryor). Is it really this bad, or is Zook just giving them fits as usual?
