| 0:36.7 | Today on the online inquire podcast, we're going to preview Illinois against Nebraska. |
| 0:42.7 | We'll have Mike Schaefer, Husker, 24-7. The best beard in the Big Ten will break down the Nebraska coach opening, who they could get to fill that spot, and a big game between Illinois and |
| 0:49.5 | Nebraska. Illinois won two straight in this series, but we're going to start the pot with my guy, Joey Wagner. Joey, I think people could hear that I have a little bit of a voice issue. Having kids, man, they bring a lot of germs. And while I feel fine, the voice doesn't feel fine. So I'm going to suck down some honey, drink some tea, and try to get through this. And I'm going to stay away from you, Jeremy, for a couple days. Well, you got eight-hour car ride coming up here. I'll be in the back seat. It'll be a chauffeur type situation on the way to Lincoln. No COVID. I'm good, Joey. I feel fine. Yeah, so hopefully I'm kicked this by the time we had to Lincoln together. It'd be a long trip. It's a fun trip. Piper and I, Piper and I made a pit stop in Kansas City for basketball last year. I don't think I've ever made the trip. I guess we drove back straight through, but I don't think I've ever made the trip straight through. It'll be fun. Yeah. We got a hit on the 2023 schedule and I just got a text message. |
| 1:44.4 | I literally just got one. My wife said that notice they're playing at Kansas and the Kansas City Royals just so happened to be at home that weekend. So maybe we'll make a trip of that, Joey, go to Kansas City on the way to Lawrence. Am I going to be a third wheel here? Why not? We'll have a good time. We'll have a good time. All right. |
| 2:00.3 | All right. |
| 2:00.5 | But we knew that was on the schedule. |
| 2:02.1 | Illinois opens against Toledo September 2nd. |
| 2:04.6 | Uh, real here? Why not? We'll have a good time. We'll have a good time. All right. But we knew that was on the schedule. Illinois opens against Toledo September 2nd, so no week zero because they don't have an opponent playing at Hawaii and they aren't playing overseas. September 9th, that Kansas, much more interesting game. We'll see if Lance Leipold is still there. But if he is, I love that match. |
| 2:18.5 | That's a fun matchup. Not as easy as probably, was it Mike Thomas that scheduled that game, |
| 2:24.5 | assumed it would be. And then the Big Ten schedule opens up, Joey, against Penn State. |
| 2:29.4 | Penn State comes here. It is the eighth, ninth straight time. They start the Big Ten on the road, and they have an issue with that. |
| 2:36.4 | Florida Atlantic, September 23rd. |
| 2:38.6 | We're keeping division, so you've got all the divisional opponents at Purdue, Nebraska at home, |
