Matchup Analysis:

Arkansas State has a legit passing offense, but they were only 4-8 last season and they have big issues on the defensive side of the ball. Illinois was 7-6 last season and even though they lost RB Mikel Leshoure to the NFL they still have a solid duel threat QB in Nathan Scheelhaase, who will lead the Illini to an easy win.
