  After further review, Illinois still sucks.

  Easy guys this game isn't over just yet imo.
  
  UC was up 30-10 over UCONN last week at halftime.

  Guidugli is invisible !!
  I can't recall the last time one guy got so wide open so many times.
• mallymal614

  Tony Pike is the real deal! He will make a good Pro QB

  What a throw and catch

  TOUCHDOWN ILLINOIS
  
  28-14
• wildcats20

  

  After that last UC touchdown, I thought this one was over. But Juice marched right back down the field and got them back into it.

  Cinci hasn't really played anyone all year. I think they'll get drilled by Pitt.
• devil1197

  What a bogus call. He wasn't even looking at the runner.
• wildcats20

  

  Not a good call at all. But that is Illinois this year.
• devil1197

  That call just ruined a great drive for the Illini. They had the ball inside the 10.
  
  FG Good
  
  28-17 with 6 min to go in 1st half.
• mallymal614

  That penalty was huge!!!!!!!

  Yes it was. Illini were driving smoothly, bad call but Ill climbs closer.
  
  That KO return TD will be huge for UC today. Ill just doesn't have the defense to make some big plays.
• wildcats20

  

  If Illinois can get a stop and some sort of points on the following drive, that could be huge going into halftime.
• devil1197

  Like I said, Ill doesn't have the defense to make big plays that 4th down would have been huge.
• wildcats20

  

  And nevermind.
• devil1197

  TOUCHDOWN UC
  
  35-17
• devil1197

  HALFTIME
  
  UC 35
  ILL 20
• wildcats20

  

  A tiny little bit of uncle mo for the Illini going into half. Not sure it's going to be enough though.
• devil1197

  wild, Ill just doesn't have the defense to get back into the game.
  
  With that said, I watched the entire first half without having any B10 bias at all.
  
  UC has the offense to hang with any team in the nation, BUT (there is always a BUT) what happens when they go against a good defense in their BCS bowl? Can their defense keep them in games, I don't think so at the moment.
