If our defense can contain Brown, we probably win, but it might not be pretty. On the other hand, I don't think Illinois has faced an Air Raid team all year.
Purdue is probably the closest thing to an Air Raid team they have faced. Illinois did OK against them holding them below their norms in a home game for them but they allowed 31 points and lost.
Illinois looks similar to us scheme wise on defense. They like to blitz and confuse you. We'll see how they play us- blitz us or go zone?
