Hmm, I actually kind of like Illinois chances in this one. At the very least, it should be a close game.

Well, call me Nostradamus - as I suspected, the Illini pulled off the upset!

According to the Associated Press, "Regus Benn returned a kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown and caught a pass for another and the Illinois defense intercepted three passes for a 27-20 upset over No. 21 Penn State on Saturday... The Illini (4-1, 2-0 Big Ten) forced Nittany Lions' quarterback Anthony Morelli into three interceptions and a fumble, all in the second half and all deep in Illinois territory."

With the Recuirting classes Zook is bringing in I think they could be a good Big Ten team for a while

Oh, I agree completely. He definitely has Illinois on the right track, but I wonder if he'd leave if a bigger school came calling.
