## Resource

Nebraska heads to Champaign for a high-stakes showdown against Illinois on November sixth—the first meeting since their overtime thriller in September 2024. With Nebraska at 11-11 and Illinois at 15-7, the Illini enter as favorites, but new QB Katin Houser and a revamped defense under new coordinator Bobby Hauck add intrigue. Watch for Kaden Feagin’s breakout potential at tight end, while Illinois’ defensive transition—especially replacing 11-sack star Gabe Jacas—could be their biggest hurdle. Nebraska’s road win streak is on the line in a hostile environment where Illinois is 12-2 at home over the past two years. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
