Week 5 Preview: Illinois

One game at a time. One thing I've learned since the glory years, we can't take anyone for granted. Don't think they will. Riley and Co seem to have the guys focused this season.

As mentioned above, I hope the team doesn't get distracted. They have stayed focused through Sam and Coach Williams. I hope they can through the current Anthem issue.

 
Wes Lunt vs the new Nebraska pass rush & improved secondary.

I'm a little worried, but cautiously optimistic. It won't be a cakewalk. No game against any opponent with a heartbeat has been yet.

 
We will win if we play like we have the past games this season. We will win big if we play to our full potential.

 
Why is anybody scared of Illinois? Because they beat us last year? We were on the road and it was our 1st year under Riley and the weather was terrible.

Because Wes Lunt is semi-good? This is their first road game under a new coach and we have a better secondary this year.

Because we are 4-0 and that scares people? This team wants revenge for last years heartbreaking debacle. If there is one game that we should have won it was this one.

 
Go Big Red!
