If Beckman blows this one he shouldn't be allowed back on the bus to Champaign.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 12:06 PM) I'm so conflicted So am I. Last week I was sure I would be rooting for an Illinois loss today but watching the game today I'm rooting for an Illinois win and a bowl game.

So with this loss the Bears season is over. Hopefully they lose the next 3 and that Minny game will be big for draft status.

Matt Forte was unbelievably open for an easy first down on that last play as well. Just an incredibly awful play by Cutler.

And that is fine but you still need to defend and the only year Crean has put together a good defensive team at Indiana was when he had Oladipo and Zeller at the same time. Even with Vonleh who was a terrific interior defender last year they still weren't great on that end. With their current frontcourt they are very likely going to be really bad on defense all year.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Nov 25, 2014 -> 08:30 AM) I picked a good first game to not be able to watch. Well, we knew they were going to be streaky. Doesn't make losing to Eastern Washington any less stomach-turning. My concern would be that Indiana shot well yesterday, Eastern Washington wasn't on fire from 3 and Indiana still lost. Indiana will be able to score and they will have games where they are tough to stop but that is almost certainly going to be a really bad defensive team all year.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Nov 24, 2014 -> 11:04 AM) Seriously? This outlook pisses me off, that win was earned by our seniors they deserved it. Forget about Beckman for one day and enjoy an Illini win, he isn't coming back anyways so relax and let the seniors/team have their moment. I don't think that is true at all. I think there is a chance that he is brought back even if he loses to NW and if he beats NW and is going to a bowl game I would be really surprised if he isn't brought back.

And there it is. Melvin Gordon's rushing record lasts one week. Insanity.

So there's a decent chance Gordon's record is only going to last one week. Perine from Oklahoma has 378 rushing yards and its only the 3rd quarter.

And f***. There's a legitimate chance Beckman is back next year now.

Come on Penn St., put this one away. I don't want there to be any possibility of Beckman saving his job.

QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Nov 21, 2014 -> 04:43 PM) LOTR is ~1200 pages and became three movies. The Hobbit is only 300 pages. It could have been done in one. Desolation of Smaug was straight up boring. Despite being only 300 pages I don't think the Hobbit would have worked well as one movie. 3 movies was definitely overkill though.

Cliff Alexander and Perry Ellis look tiny out there. This Kentucky team doesn't have a superstar but this is the deepest and most talented team I can remember top to bottom at the college level. Their size is just ridiculous, if they keep their defensive intensity up all year everyone is really going to struggle scoring against them. It helps when you have incredible size and length and most of your big men can move laterally as well.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Nov 17, 2014 -> 10:15 AM) How the hell have the Chiefs gone most of the year without a WR catching a touchdown. Also how are they 7-3 doing so. They play great defense and don't turn the ball over.

These teams f***ing suck.

One of the only times all day Cutler gets pressure on him and he does that. He just isn't good enough.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Nov 16, 2014 -> 02:23 PM) Of course Jared Allen shows up against his old team. That would have been nice the 9 other games we've played this year. It helps when you are going up against Matt Kalil. Everyone destroys him.

Matt Kalil is a remarkably bad football player.

This is two awful football teams going at it today.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Nov 16, 2014 -> 01:36 PM) Stupid penalties, check. Poor special teams, check. They get a huge break on a Cutler fumble (check)), yet it doesn't matter. Still a few minutes left in the first quarter. I really hope they either turn it around and win or get blown out again. I want a blowout. I've seen enough from this coaching staff to know they need to be gone as soon as possible for I'm rooting for losses to leave no doubt that this thing needs to be blown up.

Bears special teams getting involved in the suckfest that is this football team.

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 15, 2014 -> 10:21 PM) How long does Jimmy have to play this good before we start to regard him as a breakout star? Not sure, and I'm happy with how he has looked, but its still only an 8 game stretch against mostly garbage competition.

This Florida State team continues to be just insanely lucky.

I really despise watching Kirk Hinrich play. I basically can't watch Bulls games when Rose is out cause he is so dreadful.

So much for MSU and TCU not being able to play with Notre Dame on a neutral field.
