Illini Drive goes “three and out” every Monday on WPGU. Here are the highlights.
NATIONAL QUESTION — Of the top four teams that are undefeated in the BCS … if they go undefeated, all four, which two would you take in the national title?
Thomas Bruch — If all four of those teams go undefeated, Notre Dame’s strength of schedule has to put them in the national championship. It’d be them and Alabama. … This is BCS Armageddon, especially with Notre Dame involved finally.
BIG TEN QUESTION — The lone Big Ten team ranked in the BCS poll is Nebraska. So is Nebraska the new favorite of the week?
Max Tane — Yeah, they’re the favorite. But here’s a red flag, you’re going to Michigan State next weekend, (a team) that just beat Wisconsin in Camp Randall in overtime. I really don’t know what to expect with this conference.

ILLINI QUESTION — Over/under: 3.5 total Braxton Miller touchdowns.
Jamal Collier — For Braxton, I’ll go with four. Four is a good number. Someone will get touchdowns, right? … They’ll probably have a pick-six, they’ll probably have a punt return touchdown, they’ll have different touchdowns. They won’t get them all from Braxton. They’ll share the wealth.
