Illinois Fighting Illini Host Michigan State

The Illinois Fighting Illini will host the Michigan State Spartans in their final home game of the season, marking the 100th anniversary of Memorial Stadium. Illinois, after back-to-back losses to Oregon and Minnesota, has fallen out of the AP Top 25, while Michigan State has also struggled, losing to rivals Michigan and Indiana. The game is scheduled for Saturday at 1:30 p.m. ET and will be broadcast on FS1. Illinois' quarterback Luke Altmyer has the lowest interception rate among Big Ten starters but has faced turnover issues recently. Michigan State's freshman receiver Nick Marsh leads the team with 553 receiving yards, marking a record for a freshman at the school. Historically, the Spartans have had the upper hand in this matchup, winning 16 of the last 20 encounters.
