Nebraska naturally is getting a ton of points in this matchup, but this is a flat spot for Illinois, which beat No. 9 Penn State on the road on Tuesday to break a four-game losing streak. The Fighting Illini shot only 44 percent and hit just 3 of 10 from 3-point range, but they were lucky to catch the Nittany Lions on a very cold shooting night as Penn State shot only 36 percent itself and made 4 of 19 on 3-pointers. Nebraska is 6-3 ATS on the road while Illinois is only 7-6-1 ATS at home this season. The Cornhuskers have covered six of their last seven road games and six of their last seven Monday games. Illinois is 10-22-1 ATS its last 33 games after an ATS win. Grab the points with Nebraska.
