While I would have liked another score, it would have been meaningless. Taking a knee showed class, unlike "what's his name" at OHOWIHATEOHIOSTATE who would have run up the score as high as he could.

I'd of gave the last series to POB and run the normal offense.

But no problem with how they finished it.

I want to see us run up the score on someone. We haven't done it in a long time. Not to mention teams who like to run up the score rarely play down to the competition and suffer upsets.

The only reason I would have liked to see them score again was to put more salt on their quarterback's wound. He's a punk for saying that Nebraska fans disrespected them by chanting Go Big Red at the end.

I missed that comment about our fans, but he certainly seemed, as did most of Illinois during the game, like a punk. I remember one play where he scrambled for a short gain, didn't apparently like how he was tackled, and kinda shoved away a Nebraska defender that came over to help up the defender that tackled him, and was doing a bunch of taking after that. Numerous plays you could see him running his mouth. The entire team seemed to be trying to draw us into a personal foul with doing various crap after the play, but minor enough to not draw a flag, or at least did it when the clueless refs weren't looking. Other than the meaningless personal foul near the end, which I had no issue with, I think the team did an excellent job of not rising to their crap.
