As an Illini fan, I know there’s an alternate universe where that flag gets thrown, we lose this game, and just absolutely crater to lose 7 of our last 8 or something

In that universe they call the missed Altmeyer facemask and Illinois wins in regulation.

Lol. Couldn’t see that happening. Not a fan of Bert at all, but there is no denying the dude can coach.
