Noah is running like he's not thinking about his injury and more about whether or not he's RB2. Nice to see you again Noah!

These announcers sounded so depressed as Whittington ran that in haha, they really wanted an Illinois win and so far not looking good for them, but it’s far from over, ducks gotta keep it up!

lol, I’ve always been fascinated by fans that think every announcing team is rooting against them. I’ve heard nothing yet that would indicate that’s the case. You could convince me they’d prefer not to call a blowout, so would prefer a better game, but they’ve been fine to this point.

Playing in the B1G is about as I expected. A lot of boring games, because only 1-2 teams a year have competent QB play, so scoring 21 is enough to win most games.

In a lot of ways I won’t disagree but where I do prefer B1G refs is they aren’t throwing flags every other play. My biggest issue wasn’t that Pac-12 refs were incompetent but they always wanted to throw flags.
This. 100%.

Great point. Pac-12 officials always insisted on inserting themselves into the game, often deciding outcomes, which is the worst thing they can do.

I really don't like not getting a snap off on 2nd and 1 there before the 2 minute warning.

He’s to me the most improved player on the team this year.

I think that's just how they sound though. Dudes have seen some of the best games in recent history and this is not one of them.

No reason to run up the score. Up 25 bleeding cloak makes sense. Can still score with 2min and 3 time outs.

I understand the logic on each side, but just a little thing.
