Don't like the Bielema, but man does he have his team ready and a game plan to win.
Tip of the hat to the big guy.

Illinois (Fatboy) vs South Carolina (The SEC)

Great game. Both teams seem super competitive. This is an old school bowl battle.
If the zebras don't blow the "fumble" call on Illinois first drive, this game would have been decided already. The fact that they didn't even signal fumbled initially was fishy, then seeing the back view where the RB looked to be down makes it even worse.
BB is a good coach. Folks here just don’t want to admit it. Big win for the BIG.
If the plan was to get deep inside of Shane Beamer’s mind, it’s worked.
Great win for IL. Don’t know if they were dogs or not but that was two teams fighting hard and they looked like the better coached team and more physical
Beamer seems to be a hot head. And an odd duck.
I have. I'd take him over Rhule anyday.
That's great coaching by Patty Melt, can't blame him for taking advantage of the rules. B1G spanking SEC best teams but at least it means more.. 😂
The SEC is now 1-4 against the B1G in the bowl season.
Before Rhule was hired, I actually emailed Trev Albert's expressing that BB would be a perfect fit for the Huskers. Of course it didn't make a difference but at least I could say I tried. 🤣
Krull, I don't agree that the game would have been decided, but I do agree with you on this:
1. The Line judge and Head Linesman both went in with no call; they didn't even kill the clock. They both didn't signal.
2. South Carolina ended up with the ball in the endzone. 20 seconds goes by with nothing then we have....#3.
3. The referee said, "Guys, let's just call it a fumble/touchback so it can go to video review.
Thanks to Iowa the SEC got their only win. 💩💩💩 Them losing is ok too.
Kick them out of the conference
Wonder if Lane Kiffin found the Bama and SCAR games exciting enough.
That Shit head Bielima pulled the same crap against us..
Taunting South Carolina is group of players was unacceptable.

They had it coming
Does the Illinois quarterback have anymore eligibility left? Hasn’t he been in college 7 years?
Too many people can't separate their personal dislike of a coach from their coaching ability. There was a long thread on this board recently on Mack Brown and there was a fair amount of sentiment expressed that he was overrated. Fact is, he was 8-1 against NU during his B12 Texas tenure, and that was when we didn't suck. Tough to convince me he couldn't coach with that record. BB has a 5-1 career record against NU, including 2 wins in 2012 against a 10 win Husker team.
Yeah I can’t stand Bert but he can definitely coach. Plus he knows how to exploit rules and capitalize on bad officiating. That’s why his O-Linemen at Wisconsin tackled everyone until someone told them otherwise.
Did you see is offensive schemes? They won on the "All But 2" offense. 9 huge dudes on the line. 2 backs. No way South Carolina saw it coming, nor could they stop it.
My dislike against him, other than him beating us regularly, was that he's a sloth that has no business being married to a hot a$$ blond wife. 🤯
Hyperbole. Winning at a high level consistently at Arkansas, Kentucky, Miss st, Vandy, and formerly ole Miss is no easy task in the SEC. You can recruit very well and still be 10th in the conference in recruiting. They should’ve stuck with him IMO, but the they rolled with Pittman. Soon enough, Petrino will have the gig again. He is their best shot at greatness.
Well for starters, he no longer worked for an AD who ran the conference.
I don’t love Bert, but I do think he was a good hire for Illinois.
Even without that melt down, he looks certifiably insane on the sideline. He mutters to himself and hes got those cray cray eyes.
Thank goodness rhule stopped being weird with his moth so much
The Fighting Illini were 10 point dogs.
Not a Bert lover at all. But he has succeeded in the BIG at 2 stops and be a ranked Sec team today:
I agree. He beats Nebraska 99% of the time that he lines up against them, no matter what team he is coaching, but is that really saying anything?
BAU for certain NU fans to downgrade programs and coaches that simply beat their ass head to head, year after year…
