Illinois kicks off Big Ten play in Week 4 when it faces off against Chattanooga on Thursday night inside Memorial Stadium. The fighting Illini are coming off a lopsided 24-3 win over the Virginia Cavaliers last week. 

Running back Chase Brown recorded 20 carries for 146 yards on the ground in the victory while quarterback Tommy Devito tossed two touchdowns. The Fighting Illini defense also registered five sacks against the Cavaliers. 

The team is looking for back-to-back wins for the first time this season. It will be the first matchup between the two programs within the last seven years. 

Saturday's Big Ten slate will start with a conference matchup between No. 4 Michigan and Maryland. No. 3 Ohio State will also play Wisconsin in the evening. Four league teams are competing in their final nonconference matchup this weekend, including Indiana. 

The Hoosiers face off against the Cincinnati Bearcats for the second straight season, but this time they are on the road.
