We only have 3 home games left after tonight, but they should all be easy wins. If we're doing this to Illinois, then UCLA, Wisconsin and MSU should be absolutely dreading their visits here.

I refrained from posting this earlier today cause if it wasn’t for bad luck, I wouldn’t have any at all. Who didn’t see this coming, even the talking heads should have since ESPNs own app had the following for the pregame. I always hear the numbers don’t lie!!!!

Fernando Mendoza regressed from last week tonight.

Fernando Mendoza regress from last week tonight.

Of course, he went 21–23 in doing so.

Illinois is incredibly “mid,” but I’ll take the top 10 win!

It’s more like we’re “Indiana-Stating” this thing.

If someone actually looked up the stats, I'm probably totally wrong but Cig's teams seem so much more disciplined.  Sure, we commit penalties but under CTA, it seemed we were always committing 15-yard penalties and that just doesn't seem to happen under Cig.

When Cig was hired I said I just wanted to see disciplined, penalty free football. Man has he delivered.

Illinois has a fairly easy schedule the rest of the year (except for Ohio State). Unless they really just suck, should be at least 8-9 wins which will help us come playoff time.

Ho hum, another IU touchdown.

[LamarCheeks 22,390]

We just laid 60 on Tubby Boy. 

And haven't thrown a pass this quarter. 

LOVE IT!!!

I cannot stop laughing right now.

What a performance.  Just unbelievable.  I am so genuinely amazed.

Martin is going to be a dawg for us. Kid runs hard.
