This upcoming Saturday, the race for the B1G West title will continue as Purdue (2-1) will host Illinois (1-3). The Boilermakers are looking to extend their impressive start to the 2021 season versus an Illinois team that is looking for a rhythm on both sides of the ball.

According to DraftKings Sportsbook, Purdue opens the game versus Illinois as a 10.5-point favorite. The Boilermakers are expected to bounce back from their 27-13 loss to Notre Dame on Saturday in a big way.

After upsetting Nebraska in Week 1 30-22 at home, the Fighting Illini have dropped three straight games including a 37-30 loss at home to UTSA. Illinois suffered its most recent loss of the season at home on Saturday to Maryland 20-17.

The series is tied 45-45-6 as Purdue won last year’s matchup in Champaign, Illinois with a 31-24 score.
