I remember this game, Randle El & Levron Williams went nuts in the 1st half.

Isn't that fatal to their enterprise?I love the announcers. They don’t know what to say.
truly a thing of beauty. the look on barry's face was priceless.

I knew they were homers. I think there was a reference during the game to Wisky game broadcasts on their public network. Wow what a concept; free game coverage for fans. We've come a long way baby. I miss the Mop Lady. Huge Grin!They are from the Wisconsin sports media. This was before the days of BTN so it was a Wisconsin game feed with their two guys.

This never gets old :This used to be common. Local stations would broadcast the games at night on tape delay.
After watching IU crush OSU at the horseshoe in 1987, my old college roomie and I watched the replay that night. I recorded it on his VCR. Wish I knew what became of that tape.
WTTV used to broadcast the Bucket Game, again on late Saturday night tape delay. I also had a tape of the 1988 Bucket Game: a 52 - 7 pasting of the Boilers at WL. Apparently this tape ended up with the '87 OSU tape. Oy.

The old classic of having your starting QB return kicks
In fairness, Illinois went to the Sugar Bowl that year I believe.This tape jogged my memory on one subject. How much talent we had on Offense and how little we did with it. Randle-El and Williams were excellent players, and Jeremi Johnson was a very good fullback. In the Offensive Line, you had Craig Osika, Anthony Oakley, Enoch DeMar, Bobby Brandt, and Kris Dielmann at Tight End. Osika and Dielmann played several years in the NFL and at least two of the other three found their way onto NFL rosters for short periods of time.
This is the same team that came home the following week to play Illinois and lost 35-14. How does this Offense only score 14 points?
