Yes, the Bucks didn?t play their best ball, especially Boeckman. That said, it was a ?to be? suspended officiating crew (have they been fired yet?) that cost us the game. With the turnover in the first quarter we are most assuredly up 14-0 and the entire complexion of the game changes. Take away the rampant holding (which got so bad that in the 2nd half the stadium booed the refs into finally calling a single holding penalty, the only call against the Illini in the game) and I assure you the final Illini drive turns out differently. Our defense played stellar all season, yet laid a giant egg, at home, on senior day? Bull[censored]e!


1.) No such thing as "should have won".. we aren't Notre Dame or Miami fans.

2.) Blame it on the refs! Hell yeah! ...pussy excuse.
    • The refs did suck, but we had plenty of opportunities to win that game
    • While I am one who agrees that the obvious fumble changed the complexion game, there is no way it's "assuredly 14-0".. maybe Boeckman throws a pick 6 the next play? Maybe Beanie puts it on the turf? Maybe we don't march down the field 98 yards after recovering Illinois fumble?
    • As a Buckeye fan, you should be used to the rampant holding not being called. It is what it is. It's bull[censored] I agree, but its the way it is.
3.) Now you're onto something - the defense laid an egg. Thats a legitimate key to the loss, much more so than the refs IMO. Maybe Boeckmans numbers well offer some insight into our loss: 13/23 156 yards, 0 TDs 3 INT..

Do not come in here crying "the refs, the refs, the refs" when our defense couldn't get a stop the ENTIRE 4th quarter and our QB had zero touchdowns and turned it over 3 times.

That is why we lost - not the [censored]ty officials .. lets be honest, they're [censored]ty week in and week out anyways.

You should also look into getting a tattoo of your own hand on your back. But while we're complimenting ourselves - I did call our defense being nasty as [censored] right before the spring game
