We made Illinois pay.....no?

Am I just dreaming here?

I understand you can't bring pressure every single play, but one of the things that killed us in that UCLA game was the fact that we were sitting back and letting Hundley survey the field and find whatever the hell he wanted. Even on 3rd down we did that.

I could swear every single time we brought pressure today, it resulted in a positive play for Nebraska. Whether it be a turnover, a big tackle for loss, a 3-and-out, a turnover on downs, etc......something good always happened.

Every time Nebraska brought heat Illinois folded up or wasn't expecting it and it worked for us

I mean if were gonna play patty cake on the line might as well bring the blitz

I agree the blitz really keeps teams honest.

I thought I heard one of the talking heads say that the scouting report says Nebraska only brings heat on 3rd down. When they did it was effective. When they brought it on 1st or 2nd down they did even better. Wonder if someone will catch on at NU while watching the films tonight.

They did, also said our 3rd possession we would see RK3, and we did. I hope the other team doesn't read the scouting newspaper handouts before the game
