We’ve got at least one more week of Nittany Lions football, folks. After taking down Michigan State for its third consecutive win, Penn State football was scheduled to play Illinois at 5:30 p.m. Saturday at Beaver Stadium. Following a whirlwind season, the Nittany Lions now have a chance to land a bowl game with a win over the reeling Fighting Illini. With that in mind, here’s everything you need to know about this Illinois squad. The Team Illinois currently holds a 2-5 record on the season and fired head coach Lovie Smith this past week. The former Chicago Bears head coach called the shots in Champaign for five seasons but led Illinois to a 17-39 overall record. The Fighting Illini also saw just one bowl appearance during those years, which came last season in a 35-20 loss to Cal at the Redbox Bowl.
