Dan Lanning's team has been in survival mode as of late, as the team looks to do whatever it can to keep the season afloat. The injury to Dante Moore has derailed the Oregon offense, and after a loss to UCLA, the Ducks needed every minute possible to get the offense to come alive to knock off the Nebraska Cornhuskers, to help keep any hope of making the College Football Playoff alive.

This weekend brings another tough test for a very wounded Oregon team as Dan Lanning's team goes on the road to face the Illinois Fighting Illini. Dan Lanning's team is dealing with injuries everywhere, as is Illinois, taking some of the excitement out of what could've been a great game. The Ducks will look to go one the road, and pick up a second win in a row, and hopefully start to get some players back in the fold next week.

Anyone who can't make it to the game at Gies Memorial Stadium is in luck, as the game will be broadcast on traditional television. The Ducks clash against the Illini will be broadcast on the Big Ten Network. Oregon's game is the first football game of the day on the network, meaning that fans won't have to worry about another game running long and cutting into the broadcast or pushing it to another channel.

For this game, Big Ten Network's duo of Play-by-play announcer Chris Vosters and analyst Jake Butt will be on the call. Fans looking to catch the game on the radio can catch the game on ESPN Radio with the trio of Marc Kestecher, Kelly Stouffer, and Ian Fitzsimmons will be broadcasting the game.

Fans who no longer have traditional cable and are moving to a streaming service can watch the game with a fuboTV subscription. The streaming provider offers hundreds of channels, including Fox, making it a great option for college football fans.

Heading into Saturday's matchup, Oregon holds a 3-1 lead over the Illini in the history of this matchup. The Ducks have won the last three matchups, including in Oregon's first season in the Big Ten, when Dan Lanning's team picked up a 38-9 victory over the Illini. This will be the Ducks' first trip to Champaign since the 1993 season.
