Is Christmas coming early this year? Northwestern is 5-1 S/U against Illinois in their past 6 meetings. They have won 6 games and are now fighting for a decent paying bowl. Illinois comes off wins against Michigan, who could be the worst team in theBig 10, and Minnesota, who needs a win over South Dakota State to become bowl eligable. Juice Williams is as fickle as a clueless woman. The Illini defense has given up 30 or more points in 4 games. Can anyone justify this line?
