Awful punt by latech turned into just a bad one thanks to the bounce/roll.

Illini lead in virtually every stat. 19 to 8 minutes of possession. 271 to 164 yards.

They also lead 18 - 0 in fuck ups.

It's almost impossible to be down 12 points with the statistical domination Illinois has and only one turnover. Kudos to Beckman on getting as much futility as possible out of it.

Truly brilliant performance.

Two missed FGs, a missed XP, a pick six, and a partridge in a pear tree.

Not sure what conference the refs are from but the flags and non calls have been one sided so far. And Illini special team play has been stellar so far...

Illini 7 for 52 yards
La Tech 1 for 5 and that was in the last minute of the first half....

B1G getting beat by a cupcake. Maybe you should schedule some tougher teams.

They're not motivated because they only care about playing for championships.
