Week 3 Big Ten Preview

This week we have a bit of an informal ACC/B1G Challenge. Illinois-North Carolina, Purdue-Virginia Tech, Northwestern-Duke, Pittsburgh-Iowa and Nebraska-Miami are all games that look like they would be at home in early December on the basketball court (okay, maybe not so much Northwestern-Duke). We also have the first official conference game of the year as Rutgers and Penn State play in Happy Valley.

Illinois (2-0) at North Carolina (1-1) Noon, ESPN2

The only game against a real team that either of these teams have been involved in is North Carolina's season opening loss to South Carolina.
