PHOTO: Illinois is using THREE guys to block Joey Bosa

Ok, so we knew that Joey Bosa was going to have to be accounted for at all times on Saturday.
The All-American defensive end came into the game tied for the active lead in sacks.
So what did Illinois do? It put not one, not two, but three guys on him to try to stop him.
For real:

It’s worth mentioning that this strategy doesn’t appear to be working, as Bosa already has 1.5 tackles for loss and teamed up on a sack.
Maybe four guys are needed?
