Uh...What The F*** Was That?
Patrick Gorski-USA TODAY SportsHoly smokes. Three weeks ago we were reveling in the fact that Illinois Football became bowl eligible. Illini fans were overcome with joy after the largest comeback in school history against Michigan State. Last week, we were frustrated after a competitive loss to Iowa where it looked like the Illini had several opportunities to snatch victory from the Hawkeyes. And then Saturday happened, and we feel yucky again.
Northwestern — 2-9, winless in the B1G, starting their QB4 — dismantled Illinois 29-10 on a cold, rainy, gross day in Champaign. The only thing uglier than the weather was the way the Illini played — and maybe the TCR Twitter feed.
