Is TT better than Illinois? And what to watch for tonight

Post by JasonB »

Who is better TT or Illinois? I suspect TT is actually the better of the two teams, or it is close, which gives me a little more hope for conference play...

Anyway, I watched the first half in pretty close detail. Surprisingly, I think our offensive lineman that played the worst was Lasecki. He really struggled with the interior pass rush. We also really struggled to stay organized as a group when TT stunted or delayed a blitz.

Watch for that during the game tonight. When GG had a nice pocket, we moved the ball really well against Tech. The interior of the line struggled more than the tackles in that game. If Lasecki is able to hold down the middle, we won't have a problem moving the ball.

Illinois is better but it won't make a difference because Cincy just lost their starting QB.

The backup is no slouch, went 4-1 last year (including a bowl win) 10 TDs 2 INTs.
