<p><strong>Four fewer players for the Illinois</strong> in the first game <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/ncaa-college-football-2021-lists-of-the-FBS-conferences-for-this-season-20210824-0024.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>of the season</strong></a>. Beason, Woods and Perry will see no action for this opening game. On top of that, Slaughter will miss the entire<strong> 2021 season</strong> with a broken ankle. Smells like a bad start for the team.</p>
<p><strong>On the other hand is the Nebraska Cornhuskers</strong>, they have everything ready to open the season. <strong>Adrian Martinez</strong> is the one chosen to be the <strong>starting quarterback</strong> this season. <strong>He’s the only experienced quarterback, but Adrian has good numbers to keep the job going all season</strong>.</p>
