The Nebraska Cornhuskers and Illinois Fighting Illini will face off in a showdown between Big Ten programs on Friday. Not only do both teams have 3-0 records entering this game, but this is also a top 25 matchup with the No. 22 ranked Huskers and No. 24 ranked Illini in the AP Top 25 poll. Illinois is off to a strong start in 2024 and already has a great win over Kansas on its resume. Last week, the Fighting Illini defeated Central Michigan 30-9 and quarterback Luke Altmyer had another clean performance. He completed 19 of his 29 passes for 242 yards and a pair of touchdowns.

In the first three games of the season, Altmyer completed 69.2% of his passes for 647 yards, six touchdowns and no interceptions. His relatively flawless start will be tested against Nebraska’s strong defense this weekend. In his second season on the job, Nebraska coach Matt Rhule appears to have gotten things back on track in Lincoln. The Huskers are 3-0 and former five-star recruit Dylan Raiola is leading the way. In his first three career appearances, Raiola showed why he is ranked so highly, completing 73.8% of his throws for 670 yards, five touchdowns and just one intercept. As much as Raiola played, the Huskers’ defense also contributed greatly to this early success. So far, they are allowing just 6.7 points and 255.3 yards per game.
