What was with that awkward silence when Urban mentioned Dwayne Haskins?

His fate was one of the saddest things I've ever heard about. Unreal.

yep, his jersey went from my rotation to my wall.

 

[Captain Buckeye]

Yeah had to be because he’s now passed away but there was like 5 seconds of silence after UFM mentioned #7.

 

[BuckeyesGunn]

So, will Matt Patricia get this D to perform to a Natty standard by time we hit the playoffs?

Really sad brother.

Julian and Jeremiah show in the first half. Would like it if we ran the ball a bit more but the backs are definitely running hard, which is the Important thing.

Defense had a couple breakdowns but it's nice seeing us get a couple sacks.

let's hope so. A lot of young guys, so plenty of space to grow.

Six of eight on third down.

Is that good?

Yep. We lost really good play makers who had a huge impact.

I'm also relishing in the fact that cheating ttun nfl players all suck!

 

[Gizmo]

sure would be nice to not see the other team pulling off the runs we can't seem to.

 

[Gizmo]

Matthews, my man!

 

[Hetuck]

Just 14-0 for the Bucks in the 2nd half to nail my 42-10 prediction. Seems likely the Bucks will score more than 14. Can they hold the Illini scoreless? I hope so but I’m not terribly confident. I’m not worried about the outcome.

Damn, a pick there would’ve been nice.

 

[Gizmo]

That was not a "pass break up" that was a missed INT

I predicted 49-16.

Let’s go D! Time to go
