In the latest episode of the Pick Six Podcast, Sam McKewon, Evan Bland and Tom Shatel look ahead to Nebraska football's game at Illinois and what it means for the Huskers now and rest of the season.

The crew opens by looking at the big picture of Nebraska football, particularly what coach Matt Rhule said on Monday. Where the Huskers go from here this season and how these last seven games are a sort of audition for Nebraska in the new Big Ten.

They then move on to how Rhule can get Nebraska to focus on the important things, aka not focusing on not losing.

The three then debate what the Illinois game means for Nebraska, if anything at all. And what would a win over the Illini mean?

The briefly look ahead at the basketball season and its Big Ten media days that are coming up.

The crew closes out with their picks.
