Game Notes
Both teams come in with a perfect 3-0 records. One will leave with their first loss of the season. Illinois is the favorite despite the recent success with Western Michigan.

Illinois biggest win so far is against Arizona State (1-2). Western Michigan's biggest win is easily against Michigan (2-1). WMU is also coming off their first win against CMU in 6 years.

Illinois is led by a pretty balanced attack. Their star running back J. Ford is averaging a whopping 7.3 yards per carry and already has 6 TD runs. For Western they are led by senior QB Alex Carder who has 862 yards in just 3 games.

This game looks to be a high scoring game with both teams in the top 28 scoring offenses in the nation. Also this game could have many turnovers or very few for that both teams are in the top 21 in turnover difference.

Following this game Illinois goes to play a 3-0 Northwestern squad. Western Michigan goes to play a 2-1 Uconn team.
