It's just the first quarter of the season wrapping up. Nebraska is nothing special this year either although they might be pissy after today. |

They are a door mat. Or better yet, the arm pit of a state in disarray, so I suppose the stink fits. |

At least he hasn't gone out of his way to piss off most of the coaches in central illinis and seen as a disorganized mess by the rest of the state. |

Lovie should be fired for these awful gray uniforms. |

If they had any sort of consistent offensive production they would be ok. Defense is close to good. |

That's probably what happened. It was both. Gray ghost is from the Grantland Rice passage. |

I've never heard Red Grange referred to as the Grey Ghost but then I haven't sat down and read much Grantland Rice, either. EDIT: I don't suppose it really matters; the new racket with college football uniforms is that Nike or whoever designs these weird alternate uniform templates and then offers them to numerous schools who imbue them with whatever backstory the marketing department comes up with to make it seem like they're actually bespoke designs. There are probably identical grey uniforms for, I dunno, UVA that represent Virginia's battleships or something. |

I was at one of Red Grange's final appearances in 89/90 or so at UofI during halftime. Pretty cool. He was living in Florida at the time, pretty low-key, but came out one last time. Howard Griffith had just broken his and the NCAA TD record. It was pretty cool. |

His recruiting classes are great. I don’t think he has the patience to see their fruition. |

He doesn't even have a conference win in a weak ass conference. They do, and they even lost a bunch of freshmen from last year. Dantonio is obviously a great coach. In Lovie's defense, the cupboard was bare and the Illini have had a lot of injuries, too. |
