Pathetic game, in my opinion if they would have called that fumble we'd be looking at an ohio state blowout, it will be interesting to see if espn even uses that play on the highlights, they sure didnt look back at it after the next play...And we relied on being able to move the ball when we needed to, which we did, but threw some Terrible interceptions. Pathetic finish. We took too many drives for granted in the first half and needed to start passing on first down

Let's not go there....that was the second drive of the game. We were outplayed for 3 solid quarters.

Illinois: No turnovers, one penalty, gutsy play calling
Ohio State: Three turnovers, I don't know how many penalties, poor coaching decisions

Our calling the TO before the Illinois punt cost us the game...

PROPS TO THE BUCKEYES FOR THIS RUN. NOBODY THOUGHT WE COULD GET THIS FAR UNDEFEATED...NOBODY...YET...HERE WE WERE.

One loss does not end a great season...

...AND THAT'S exactly what it was...

Amen. Tough pill to swallow, but they DO have a chance to win the outright title and go to the Rose Bowl.

This loss stings....badly, but my god....you can't expect to win every game every year. It happens. Not the end of the world in the least.

Congrats to the Illini on a helluva impressive performance! (except for the inevitable flamers who will make their way over here....they can go fuck themselves :p)

This is not 1998.

In 1998, EVERYBODY had tOSU winning it all.

This is very different.

All of these things cost us the game, it wasn't just one thing.....We got dominated in the trenches all day....That was the telling part of the game....
