Welcome to another busy week in the Big Ten Conference. While Penn State is on the road at Washington on Saturday afternoon, there are plenty of other games to keep up on in the wide-open conference race.
FRIDAY NIGHT
Nebraska (5-3, 2-3) at Illinois (5-3, 3-2), 8 p.m. on FOX
Details: The Huskers have lost three straight in excruciating fashion, so seeing them as a road favorite against an Illinois team on the brink of bowl eligibility seems a little surprising. However, it almost feels like Matt Rhule’s team is destined to find a way to lose another weird game in a place where weird games typically happen.
