Penn State-Illinois Preview

Penn State (7-1, 4-0 Big Ten) will face what Joe Paterno said will be its second toughest game of the season when the Nittany Lions take on Illinois (6-2, 2-2 Big Ten) on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. The Nittany Lions will be looking to remain in first place in the Big Ten Leaders Division with a win against the Illini. They will also be looking for revenge against an Illinois team that came in to Beaver Stadium and routed the Nittany Lions 33-13 last season.

Penn State-Northwestern Preview

Penn State (6-1, 3-0 Big Ten) faces an interesting test when it takes on Northwestern (2-4, 0-3 Big Ten) on Saturday at 7 p.m. The Wildcats have not performed well this season, but they do seem to always give the Nittany Lions trouble. Last year, Northwestern jumped out to a big lead before Penn State came back to win, 35-21, for Joe Paterno's 400th victory. If Penn State's previous two road games are any indicators, this will be a close, error-filled affair in Evanston, Ill.
