Today on the online inquiry podcast, we promise not to make as many fire puns as everyone else, or fire metaphors as everyone else.

We're going to try and keep it to football.

But yes, they will play football Friday night at Memorial Stadium as Illinois host Nebraska,

despite the small fire that occurred under the horseshoe on Tuesday night.

But good job by the fire departments for putting that out and sounds like very little

damage has happened so Illinois announced the game will go on as plan no structural damage and

nobody should be put in harms away structurally with that so that is good news and they are

playing football so let's talk about a game that's big for both these programs,

relatively, in the scheme of things, for the Big Ten West, because Nebraska needs a win.

They're two and three, 0 and two to start Matt Rule's first season.

What have we learned about Matt Rule? What have we learned about Nebraska?

He's had some injury issues, has new quarterback starting for them recently, but they're playing a little defense, they're playing physical, they're kind of playing in a much different way than Scott Frost did. Is that enough to beat Illinois? We talk with Mike Schaefer, Husker 24-7, and then as always, to get you ready for the game, kind of doing this now, a six-pack of questions with Joey Wagner. We dive into Illinois. What concerns us most?

What we thought of the coach's response this week to a disappointing loss at Purdue.

And what this game means for Illinois, which is two and three.

O and two in the Big Ten.

Very disappointing start for Illinois, of course.

We dive into it with Joy Wagner.

So without further ado, let's talk

about Illinois, Nebraska. Joy Wagner coming up later. But next, Mike Schaefer of Husker 24-7.
