The unbeaten and 12th ranked Penn State Nittany Lions finally face a test this Saturday night as they host 22nd ranked Illinois in a nationally televised game on ABC. The Nittany Lions have been impressive so far this season but haven’t played anyone. They should find out something this week as Illinois and quarterback Juice Williams come to town. Williams has the potential to make big plays but he also makes mistakes. He was 13-for-25 for only 147 yards with a TD and an interception in the Illinois win over Louisiana-Lafayette two weeks ago. "My performance wasn't good enough," Williams said. "A lot of times it's a big play that sparks us, but we didn't have that play today." He has not played well in his career against Penn State. He has thrown four interceptions in the last two games against the Nittany Lions. SBG Global reports that early NCAA Football betting has the public taking Penn State at Home.
