Both programs love to run the football and drain the clock as Minnesota is averaging 47 rushing attempts per game while Illinois has 43.8 rushing attempts per game heading into this matchup. If Devito can't go for Illinois, backup Artur Sitkowski will limit the number of points that Illinois can score as a whole. These two teams combine to allow only 16.8 points per game and are the top two scoring defenses in the country. The under has it in four of the previous five games against one another. This game could look a lot like the NFL Thursday Night game.

Play on the UNDER.
