I always enjoy a good Illini joke, but they haven’t lost to BAD teams, just not really good deals outside of a couple...

Anyone interested in doing a ‘bowl blast’ (at least that’s what we call it at school) where you pick the winner of 39 bowl games and rank them from 39 (most confidence in a victory) to 1 (least confidence in a victory)? Game start Saturday 12/15 so I would need to know by this Monday in order to send out emails and would need all submissions back by Friday night/Saturday morning before games start to be eligible for participation.

An ugly big win is better than any loss. On the road, no less. Watch the game film, try to fix this mistakes this week in practice, and Georgia get ready for a tough UofSix game on Saturday.

“Of course it’s going to have an impact on my decision.” hes ours.

So you’re saying you don’t believe it?

I think we need to be updating jerseys to stay consistent with new trends and player preferences (not creating them by players choice, though) so I for one am happy they are at least trying

FSU ended the game on an 8-0 run. Purdue didn’t score a point the last 3:41 of the game. is it bad that makes me happy?

I don’t understand why some are doubting Archie after less than 1.5 years at the helm. Did we think all of our bad habits would magically be fixed? It takes time to get players that play his way and to ‘unlearn’ old ways of playing that were not very productive. Expectation should be to make the tournament. This year. No more. I feel confident we will achieve that goal.

Assuming all holds, rankings will be Bama, Clemson, ND, Oklahoma/Georgia, then OSU. Unless. IMO, as long as 3 of the following win out, they will be left out: Clemson, ND, Oklahoma, Georgia, NW

Assuming we win all the cupcakes, wouldn’t that make us 9-2, though? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I pay little attention to rankings but I understand your reasoning on how it did ‘hurt’ us. Just commenting on the ‘ranking’ remaining basically the same as some on here called this a ‘bad loss’. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Ugh—hate this and home I’m wrong: Purdue 30 Indiana 20 Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

I realize they mean essentially nothing, but Marquette win/Arkansas loss basically as wash this week as we are still the second team out side of rankings in ‘others receiving votes’ in AP poll. Not sure how many votes we had last year (if it really matters), but was interested to see how loss affected the overall perception of the team/early season Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Similar to how VMI only shot 5 foul shots on 12 called fouls against UK while the Cats shot 35 foul shots on 26 called fouls against VMI. Can’t stand when the home team gets the calls Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

IU takes their aggression out from today’s loss... Indiana 96 UT Arlington 50 Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Good post. We battled back down 10. We were short-handed. Arkansas might not be as talented as we are, but hopefully they have a productive season. Good learning experience for our younger team. Not sure what Ark was in Kenpom before the game but they are 53rd currently. Hardly a bad loss. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
