CHAMPAIGN, Ill. – Hail Varsity’s “Views From the Other Side” podcast is back for another week as I chat with Bob Asmussen from IlliniHQ.com about the Huskers’ latest opponent.
Jacob Padilla also joins me to offer his thoughts on Nebraska naming Husker legend Dave Rimington as its new interim athletic director and to give a score prediction for the game.
Nebraska and Illinois kick off at 7 p.m. with the Huskers fighting to get to 2-0 in Big Ten conference play and the Illini hoping to even out their record at 2-2.

Derek is a newbie on the Hail Varsity staff covering Husker athletics. In college, he was best known as ‘that guy from Twitter.’ He has covered a Sugar Bowl, a tennis national championship and almost everything in between (except an NCAA men’s basketball tournament game… *tears*). In his spare time, he can be found arguing with literally anyone about sports.
