After going 250 days without Illini Football and a season without being allowed to attend games at Memorial Stadium, Illinois fans can celebrate on Saturday. Football is finally back!
The Fighting Illini will be taking on the Nebraska Cornhuskers in Bret Bielema’s coaching debut.
(Note : This matchup was supposed to be played in Ireland but was shifted to Champaign due to COVID-19 concerns.)
Here are a few things to note before you tune into the game on Saturday.

The matchup between the Illini and the Huskers was one of the bright spots for our team last season.
