Illinois Faces First Road Test Of 2024
The Illinois Fighting Illini are 3-0 and are ranked going into this week's Illinois vs Nebraska matchup. The Illini have home wins over Eastern Illinois, Kansas, and Central Michigan under their belt so far this season. But they are hitting the road for the first time this season in this game and it will be interesting to see how the Illini perform on the road and in their first game against a truly tough opponent. To get a win here, the Illinois defense will need to stand tall once again, after allowing a total of 26 points over their first three games combined.
Can Nebraska Stay Perfect at Home?
The Nebraska Cornhuskers are also 3-0 and ranked for the season. They have crushed UTEP, Colorado, and Northern Iowa at home over their first three games. Here, the Huskers are at home once again and are favorites to improve to 4-0 and to remain ranked. But they will need quarterback Dylan Raiola to play his best game of his young college career for that to happen, as this is easily the best defense that Raiola and Nebraska has faced to this point in the 2024 season.
Illinois vs Nebraska Best Bet
There is understandably some concern with how Dylan Raiola is going to play in his biggest test yet as a college quarterback. But Nebraska should be able to win and cover the spread at home in this contest. Illinois is off to a nice start to the season, but their strength of schedule and the fact that they haven't played away from home yet this year should be red flags for those looking to bet on them this week in Lincoln.
