WIN

Bob Diaco made his name at Notre Dame as the best defensive coordinator in the country, but when he took over the head coaching job at UConn, he had other responsibilities. He is back in his comfort zone as the new DC at Nebraska. After a few bumps early, the Huskers have been playing some pretty good defense, holding their last two opponents to a combined 38 points. It has been 15 years and the Illini have finished the regular season with a better than .500 record just one time. Last year they averaged fewer than 20 points per game, and this season have managed a season high of just 24 through three games. Nebraska is capable of shutting the Illini offense down completely, and they have averaged a meager 15.4 ppg in their last five vs. the Huskers. Nebraska's offense is not what it once was either, scoring just 38 points in their last two. Play this one to finish UNDER.
