Where Can I Bet the Huskers-Fighting Illini Game From Nebraska, Illinois?
BetUS welcomes gamblers from both the state of Illinois and Nebraska to bet the Cornhuskers vs. Fighting Illini game.
Unless you're a gambler or diehard fan of either team, this game likely won't be attracting much attention as both teams come into the Friday night matchup with 2-3 records Straight Up. Nebraska is 2-3 Against The Spread while Illinois is yet to cover (0-5 ATS) this season. It's very rare for a team to start any season 0-6 Against The Spread. With that in mind there could be a nice betting opportunity here.
