Watched a little these are the stats I was able to get right at the beginning of the third. I haven’t been impressed but we didn’t look that good in the first half either

1-7 3rd downs and 41 rushing yards on an average FCS team…  hopefully, next Saturday’s game will be manageable.

Tale of two halves.  No Illinois woke up.  Could these guys pose a bigger challenge than Thursday’s opponent did?
