LINCOLN — The 400th straight sellout at Memorial Stadium will be a matchup between two ranked teams.
Nebraska, ranked last week for the first time since 2019, moved from No. 23 to No. 22 in the Associated Press while Illinois, off to a 3-0 start like NU, entered this week’s poll at No. 24.Â
So Huskers-Illini — set for Fox’s Friday night telecast — becomes the first Nebraska home game between two AP-ranked teams since 2013, when the Huskers, ranked 23rd, lost 41-21 to No. 16 UCLA.Â
Nebraska is No. 22 in the Coaches poll as well, while Illinois is 26th, the first team out of the Top 25 rankings.Â
NU is 3-0 for the first time since 2016, with a notable win over Colorado. Illinois is 3-0 for the first time since 2011, and has a win over previously-ranked Kansas. Early betting lines have listed Nebraska as a 10-point favorite.

Texas is the new No. 1 in the AP poll, eclipsing Georgia, which escaped with a 13-12 win at Kentucky. UGA remained No. 1 in the Coaches poll.Â
