Zook doesn't understand why Illinois lacks emotion

There's a lot of things that Zook doesn't understand. This is just one of them.

Here's a clue moRon, your team didn't almost choke against a far inferior opponent because of "emotion". Your team was ill prepared to play the game and your staff didn't help with its dumb play calling. UL-L should have no business being on the field with the Illini but you make any game with a third rate opponent competitive.

I think 9/27 is going to be Armageddon.

This is from Zook's press conf Tues the 16th. There are some beauts in there,but WTF does this mean?
On Illinois' Big Ten schedule:


"Well, I'm a little bit like I was a year ago at this time. I've said this all along, I think we're a better team now and we haven't proven that yet. I've also said that being a better team, I don't know what that means exactly because there's more to play. To be a good team you have to play as a team and be a team. I think if we go up there to Happy Valley, I think our guys understand they're not going to sneak up on anybody, everybody's expecting us to come and show up. If we go up there and play all we've got, then that's all I ask. Penn State is an awfully good football team. They've got everybody back. The quarterback is better, the running back is better, the defense, and three of their best players aren't even considered starters. All we can do is go up there and play the best we can play, and as I said, if it's not good enough, it's not good enough. As a coach, what you want to be able to do is have your players lay it on the line and do everything that they could possibly do to win."
