Illinois almost had a Orton Wisconsin moment
- Thread starter BSIT
- Start date
9-6 slugfest that Hayes and Schembechler would be proud of. A three point lead for Illinois feels like 20 with Iowa's offense.
Welp..... Petras with the infield fly interception, and Iowa looks cooked. Still some time left, though and three TO's for TMHR.
Iowa should be passing to the TE every play
I really don't see how Ferentz can protect his son much longer. That offense is horrendous. And to continue to play Petras at this point is almost criminal.
One more chance for redemption or clemency.
What the hell is Petra’s doing running. And the band at Illinois are assholes.
Hope English sees what happens when you keep attacking on Defense.

Petra’s is straight trash. Literally an awful awful awful QB
Imagine being an Iowa fan knowing Petra’s was coming back for his Covid year?!?
Or look at the WR who transferred to Purdue and now is All B1G
I just realized. Spencer isn’t on Covid year. He can come back next season. Ha ha ha
Illinois could have sold seats in the end zone for that game. Safest place in the stadium.
Colts and Broncos fans thought that game was unwatchable.

My Iowa relatives are sick of Brian Ferentz aka Brutal Ferentz. They say, “Build the statue for Kirk Ferentz, thank him, then show him the door. “ The Offense is offensive and cannot help their solid defense. They also agree Nepotism is not good.
Hard to believe their offense is being “Shooped” like our 2013-2015 Purdue offense.

^ Illini fan with a lot of Iowa friends … feel like it’s a tough spot. Past success doesn’t guarantee future success, and Iowa has few built-in advantages. While thinks look like shlt now, how exactly do you reasonably show him the door??
(Obviously, his son should have been shown the door a while ago.)

You give him a choice of removing his son or force his resignation if he refuses. He's not going to want to be fired and tarnish his legacy. So he'll accept one or the other. Then you hire a competent OC or HC depending on the situation...
I’ll pay for Petras’s NIL. I have a couple extra rolls of quarters to spare
This is something that should never be spoken of...ever. No one needs to be reminded of that play...ever.
