Memorial Stadium Sellout Watch update for Minnesota:
Daily ticket sales are impressively strong down the stretch. There have been approximately 500 tickets sold in the last 24 hours. As I noted yesterday, I feel even more confident in 56,000 and think 57,000+ is in play Saturday.

6-2. Four games left in the regular season.

We play our best game of the year. Solid in all three phases of the game. And with a handful of upsets, we move back to #19 in the AP poll. We're back! (7-1 predicting the winner; 5-3 against the spread)

Minny tends to win on the money down, which is going to keep this game close....it's imperative we don't let them establish the run, which shouldn't be a tall task. AH, what ya got?

Agree. Especially with our DBs not at 100% it would help if we could get pressure on the QB to take some of the pressure off them.
They are obviously not going to say if he’s playing or not. That also goes for everyone else as well.

I would not say zero impact, I would say somewhat
A lot of the same coachse are on the sidelines, and that has influence on the players and the game
Please tell Purdue that it has zero impact.
I had the pleasure of watching Max Brosmer play at the University of New Hampshire starting with his freshman year. He's got a good, not great arm, and has pretty good ball security. During his career at UNH, he threw for 68 TD's and had 25 INT's. He's thrown 5 picks this year. He's a little slow afoot, and not a really big threat to run. He is a little plodding going through his progressions, and tends to be sacked more than average. He's better than the last few QB's Minny has had, but you can get to him.

The current price for Illinois suggests about a 43% win probability.
Who gave us a 60% probability to win? And if that entity isn’t making the point spread, there is no direct correlation.
Like I said, let’s keep proving the doubters wrong and pull off the upset even though we are ranked.

When the line first opened, I saw some models giving Illini 53% chance to win, and they have trended down with the line (roughly around 45% chance to win). This pretty much means a coin flip in my mind. If Illini play with the focus they had against Michigan, I feel good about Illini covering and winning outright.

in these last 4 games , the only team who can beat the Illini , is the Illini .
