It's not too much to ask Illinois to beat the worst team in the Big Ten, Rutgers, at home.

The Scarlet Knights haven't won a road game, after all, since November of 2015.

The Illini hold a talent edge on the Scarlet Knights. Illinois has been derailed by quarterback turnovers. I don't see that being as much of an issue against this caliber of opponent especially at home.

Rutgers has scored a combined 44 points in its last four games - all losses - against Purdue, Eastern Michigan, Nebraska and Ohio State.
