Lovie has athletes; will the Illini be our toughest game left??

[uihawk82]

They have a very good offensive line according to the tv analyst and they sure opened some big holes against Nebby. They have two tough, fast running backs. Peters came back to be the starter and he is mobile and a pretty good passer.

Their defense looked pretty fast and athletic but they also had trouble with McCaffrey QB runs. I had not seen them play until yesterday but at their place the game could be tough.

I sure hope the Wisky QB is lights out against us. He started out really good against jNW yesterday but then a tipped ball INT and he seemed to struggle.

Second toughest, behind that Badgers

Illinois just manhandled the Nebraska defense. I mean manhandled. It also looks like Nebraska is banged up defensively. It sounds like Colin Miller is going to be ok, which is great...but i'd doubt he plays against Iowa. I hope Frost isn't that stupid...well...someone in their medical staff isn't that stupid. We know Frost would likely play him.

Illinoise is a pretty competent team with a competent senior QB. They have big, strong lines.

They pulled that senior QB, and Iowa scored 35 unanswered points. Total beat down. Love, love, love.

I was pretty worried about Peters, but Petras was the better QB!! And Iowa has nasty O and D lines.

I thought they didnt pull peters until the last 7-8 minutes. But no matter great game by the hawks

Didn't meant to imply that pulling him and the unanswered points were totally connected. Just making the points that we dominated them and had better QB play. The beatdown: we scored 35 unanswered points. They pulled their senior QB who started lights out.

What in the world does athletes mean? Seems like prodding to argue for a problem that does not exist.

Not at all looking for some argument if you mean I am implying something racial. What are you implying?

Athletes means real good speed, great feet, strength, catching and throwing (eye hand), these are sort of like some of the 5 tools in baseball. Look at Valery Borzov or any number of decathletes.
