Huskers at Home vs. Illinois – Gameday at Moon Valley Grill – Oct. 29 – Kickoff 12:30 p.m. AZ time
As you may know, our last game vs. Purdue was hard-fought, but we ended up losing by one touchdown 37-43. However, they definitely seemed to be playing more cohesively, and the offense was clicking, so let’s keep the faith. They had a bye week last week, so let’s hope they are rested, prepared, and rarin’ to go!
Game day is at one of our longest running watch-sites: Moon Valley Grill in north central Phoenix (near 7th St. and Coral Gables). Kickoff is at 12:30 AZ time, but come early to get your favorite seats (it’s one of our smaller venues).
