Family weekend at ISU. Tickets are very hard to come by, looks like lawn is available thru ISU. WIU sold out their allotment several weeks ago.
Weather is iffy right now. 55/45 with a 60% of showers at this time. Wind out of the east 10-15 mph.
WIU comes in at 5-3 and 2-3 in conference play. Started out their season 5-1 before losing their last 2.
Jaelon Acklin (58 catches for 1002 yards) is their main weapon on offense. Steve McShane and Max Norris are their main running backs. Looks like McShane (5'8 /180) is their speed guy, while Norris is their between the tackles guy at 5'10/210. Their QB is a JR and has started for the better part of his last 2.5 years.
Defensively they are lead by all everything MLB Brett Taylor. He has 118 tackles on the year. To put that in perspective, the next closet in the MVFC is at 84 tackles. Their defense is 2nd in interceptions as well.
Their kicker is 8/8 on fg's but has missed 3 XP's. Their punter only averages 34.7 yards per kick, which is worst in the conference. Their punter returner leads the conference in returns, averaging almost 17 yards a return.
Illinois State - 2.5
Over / Under 52.5
