The battle for the Illibuck is today at noon ET on ABC (channel 1006 Time Warner Columbus/Delaware).
According to Wikipedia, Ohio State vs. Illinois is a rivalry game. While that claim may be debatable these days, the game is still an important one for the Buckeyes, who look to increase their winning streak and keep their spot in the College Football Playoff. With the regular season ending soon for Ohio State with games against BOTH teams up north, and with a QB situation that has not been as stable as we would have hoped, it's important that the Buckeyes not get caught unfocused or looking ahead to next week today.
