Nebraska football is hosting Illinois in Lincoln today and if you don’t have a seat at the game, here’s how you can watch, stream or listen to the Huskers.

There are no fans quite like Nebraska football fans and that will be proven again Saturday when the Huskers sell out Lincoln Memorial Stadium when they host Illinois.

Most fan bases would be disappointed about a 2-7 season and surely, Nebraska football fans are, however, there is still light at the end of this tunnel. Husker fans seem the momentum moving in the right direction and with a season-ending winning streak, it would be hard not to feel good heading into next season.

So that’s the goal. Win out. It might seem difficult against Illinois, Michigan State and Iowa but it’s possible. This Nebraska team could have easily beaten Ohio State last week, the No. 10 team in the country. If the Huskers can do that, they can certainly beat Iowa. And maybe they can beat a ranked Michigan State team just like they did back in 2015.

The best part about watching this team is the offense. Head coach Scott Frost has the Huskers churning out yards like the old days and Adrian Martinez is maybe the best young quarterback in Big Ten. Nebraska also has some other exciting young players like Maurice Washington and JD Spielman.

Bottom line: this offense is going to rack up a ton of yards and points the rest of this season and starting next year. Hopefully, the defense can catch up but guys are starting to emerge and Illinois will be another test. So here is the game info, including how to watch and stream online.

Game info:

Game 10: Nebraska vs Illinois

Where: Lincoln Memorial Stadium

When: 11:00 CST

TV: Big Ten Network

Streaming: BTN2GO or FuboTV

Radio: Huskers IMG Radio

What to expect:

The weather could be a factor today as it looks there could be some wind to deal with, however, there shouldn’t be snow. That could hurt the Huskers a little, as they throw the ball much better than Illinois, yet both teams are solid running the ball.

Nebraska football will need a solid game from its defense, especially against AJ Bush and Reggie Corbin. Bush, a former Husker, is a dangerous dual-threat quarterback and Corbin is the third-leading rusher in the Big Ten. If NU can contain those two guys, it should win the game.

In case you missed them earlier, here are my predictions for the Huskers Saturday and for a quick prediction, I will say that Nebraska wins by 14. 52-38.
