I feel like my conspiracy theory was right. Wadley benched first possession. Cost us a turnover too. Congrats ferentz

Ok try the really high short kickoff to pin them down inside the 20

Or this.

 

[ArvadaHawk]

You throw the ball, you add the mesh hand off with Stanley keeping it and running it, you use AW as a decoy and pretty soon, the DL's and LB's are running parallel to the LOS instead of straight up field. Now you have an offense that can run and pass.

We should try an onside kick.

normally I would say that to but we are big favorites so lets not give them a short field. try to pin them down and force the punt

So true when the defense doesnt know what is coming at them.

I look at it this way. The D didn't have AW to key on. If not for the fumble...that's execution...we were on our way to points.

I doubt it. My guess is Kirk is always afraid to put in the new guys but knew he needed to today. He finds it less risky to put them in with great field position.

A winner is you!

[ArvadaHawk]

Onside kick. The Cap'n really IS a riverboat gambler.

 

[uihawk82]

There is the onside kick , awesome and how could the illini not be ready for that

 

[Xerxes]

Holy shit! Hell has frozen over

 

[PCHawk]

No way did that just happen!

[PCHawk]

Wirfs in the game.

 

[thedukeofearl]

Well.....Now I have seen it all.....

Not a human on the planet saw that one coming.....

 

[uihawk82]

And why did Fant not start or did he

 

[TJHawkeye]

Somebody must have kidnapped the real Kirk Ferentz. Onside kick?

 

[mopkins]

Again the misuse of wadley. 4th and 1 hand it to young

 

[uihawk82]

Wirfs in the game.

Wirfs started, well that was not a very good 4th and 1 call.
