PJ has exactly one win vs good competition but I will admit, it is one more this morning than I predicted.

I’m hoping Minny pounds Iowa so bad next week that the Squawks don’t recover in time to play well against Illinois.

I would never have predicted Illinois over Wisconsin. I certainly thought they were dead when down 25 on the road. So I hope to be wrong, but Iowa could win by 20 or more.
Iowa doesn’t have much offense, but Illini gave up huge chunks of yardage to an msu team severely limited on offense.
Hope the Illini control the ball and maybe they get some guys back, but I see Iowa winning, and probably easily.

Illinois will have to get some turnovers on defense.

Good that the Illini are still fighting and not laying down like the Bears.

Peters throws on the run.
Iowa defender takes two long strides after the ball is out and pops Peters in the helmet, knocking him out of the game.
Review.
No penalty!
What the living ****?
Why have a rule if it only applies when the home crowd reacts?
Absolutely ridiculous.
No flag or ejection. QB out. Defender stays in. Hit came looong after the ball was thrown.

The six point swing at the end of the half was huge!

Peters has kept improving all year. Your comment is surface material. BheBhe couldn’t catch a cold Saturday.

P.S. I hate that the Orange and Blue has been converted to red and blue. **** that! Stop this ridiculous transition, and get back to Orange!
