Cincinnati 49, Illinois 36 (final)

[Steve19]

[media talking head]Cincinnati over Illinois clearly demonstrates the strength of the Big East and the demise of the Big Ten.[/media talking head]

[media talking head]Ohio State could only beat the Illini by 30-0. The Bearcats are staking their claim as Ohio's #1 team and deserving of a NC game.[/media talking head]

 

[Steve19]

The Illini are head cases. Score here and the defense might just get a stop.

 

[Steve19]

OK. They answered. Now, this could get interesting.







Or, they could be Illinois.

 

[Jaxbuck]

Any signs of life by the team I wagered on, no matter how fleeting, are always appreciated.

Its just going to piss UC off and make them shoot for 40 in the first half.

 

[BuckeyeTillIDie]

Cincy gets to start every possession at midfield or better.

Wasn't Zook a special teams coach???

 

[Steve19]

Special teams at Illinois. Our mission is to crush momentum shifts in our favor...early and often.

They should just call them the momentum suppression teams.

 

[Woody1968]

I gotta give credit to Cincy for having Bootsy Collins as a fan...

 

[FCollinsBuckeye]

Wow - did Cinci just go for it on 4th down?

 

[Gatorubet]

I was trying to explain to my kids why there are M*ch*gan fans in Ohio and what they are like the other day. Damn I wish I had this to show them then.

All I managed to say was "they are just [censored]ing dickheads who want to be different".

So none of you would wear your Buckeye gear if you lived in Michigan? Or if you did then you would be attention seeking dickheads?

I dunno guys, if I lived in Athens, Georgia I would wear my Gator t-shirts or caps like I do now, deep in the heart of LSU country, but I don't do it to pick a fight here, and that would not be my intention if I lived in Athens. I wear UF gear because I love UF and I'm a proud alumnus, and because I am not going to hide those beliefs just because I don't live in Gainesville anymore, but have moved to enemy territory.

Granted, fuck those fair weather band wagon fans. But I have to disagree that wearing one's gear in enemy territory is purely attention seeking behavior.

When the Zooker was at UF, he was in charges of special teams - and he made a video about how to coach ST.

 

[BuckeyeTillIDie]

Throw it to the 5 yard line, get a personal foul back to the 20. Classic Illinois.

 

[Jake]

First and goal Illini, and they commit a dead ball personal foul.

On further review, it was a bad call by the ref.
