Official PSU - Illinois Game Thread

[NittanyChris]

Any intelligent guesses on how badly Donovan Johnson got hurt? He's been really playing great. It would be a shame to lose him for a long time.

 

[83wuzme]

Apparently, Nick Bowers is OK. He had a fair number of snaps tonight.

 

[LafayetteBear]

Is this Penn State vs. the construction barrels? Illinois uniforms could be used on the highway.

Ironically, PennDoT is running commercials on the Sirius radio broadcast.

 

[David1956]

Running up the score again. Shame.

 

[Big 0]

Was she kissing another cheerleader??

No, but I was hoping she would.

 

[SUPERTODD]

I feel bad for Reid.
He was a helluva cover corner before he got hurt. Seems very unsure of himself now.

It’s a year recovery to get back to full strength. I had my ACL blown into 3 pieces and never got full range of motion back. I’m sure Reid will get back to where he needs to be eventually. Hope to God TCF isn’t seriously hurt.

 

[ILLINOISLION]

Why the hell would they not go for it? Senseless to kick a field goal.

No, cutting it from 18 to 15 makes it a potential two score game. Was the right call especially with a good kicker (though he’s having a bad night).

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Note: Illinoize has some gorgeous cheerleaders.

good grief. flags all over the field. Hell, the ball boy threw a flag on that. 15 yard PF for violation of board rules. Find the pics and post them.

Wanny just hates us.. you can hear the jealousy in his voice.

 

[Chickenman Testa]

Does he trespass on your lawn too?

Knight wants white safeties back there too!!!! With proper haircuts!!!

 

[nitlion93]

were we a 4 TD favorite? We could still cover.

He exemplifies all that Pitt is. Crybaby Losers.

 

[CJF_Said_The_Great_Joe_Paterno]

Holding all over the place on that Rivers first down run - no flags, go figure! LMFAO

 

[83wuzme]

Sutherland is the best tackler on this defense.

 

[lionroar88]

Butler with excellent coverage there!

 

[harjeff]

Sutherland is the best tackler on this defense.

I remember last year Marcus Allen had some high praise for Sutherland....Must have been right as he does look good

 

[NittPicker]

I want more points.......

 

[lionroar88]

Parsons with his first tackle tonight?

 

[Erial_Lion]

Holding all over the place on that Rivers first down run - no flags, go figure! LMFAO

Bushwood crying about penalties all night...go figure.

 

[AtlantaLion]

14 in, no sight of #2???

I don’t have a way of posting a replay of Slade’s TD.

 

[David1956]

Hi deep young man , go deep

 

[Marylovesthelions]

Good defense in the second half.

 

[lionroar88]

Freirmuth gets a TD and not another target the entire night?

 

[PennState_one]

I love the fact that PSU has a run game that can finish out a game

 

[Nittany_93]

What, no TD from Clifford? He's been in TWO plays already! Geesh!

 

[psualt]

Bushwood crying about penalties all night...go figure.

In fairness they called the penalty late

 

[Nittanyfarmer]

That should be ejection, no excuses at all.

 

[AtlantaLion]

Freirmuth gets a TD and not another target the entire night?

Spoke too soon.

 

[BobPSU92]

INCOMPLETION.

FIRE. CLIFFORD.

 

[NittPicker]

Thanks #24. You helped Clifford avoid his first incompletion.

 

[lw37]

Cheap. Shot.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

that penalty by the Illini safety was even dumber than Cam Brown's penalty

 

[Big 0]

Finally a foul on Illinois for overly aggressive play.

 

[lionroar88]

Holy crap! Freirmuth is lucky to get up after that bullshit.

 

[Pocono Lion]

OK, all bets are off now. I hope we hang 60 on them

 

[mmp121]

That kiss...

 

[Tom McAndrew]

I don’t have a way of posting a replay of Slade’s TD.

you're good ... your post was close to a flag, but the refs let it go. My post about the flags was to @Locolion for his post about the gorgeous Illini cheerleaders.

 

[RickinDayton]

Sutherland is the best tackler on this defense.

He is solid and wraps up. Taylor is also a good tackler.

 

[AtlantaLion]

OK, all bets are off now. I hope we hang 60 on them

Still need a Field Goal + to cover the spread.
