23-17 with 5 minutes left and Illinois has the ball.

Illinois trying to drive 99 yards in the final 2 minutes. They've made it to the red zone, but now it's 4th and 10 with 50 seconds left.

WMU stops them! Ball game.

Now I REALLY wish I had bet more on the Broncos.

Embarassing...but how about that MAC West? Central Michigan, Western Michigan, and Ball State are pretty goos, and Norhter Illinois almost beat Minnesota too.

 

[NFBuck]

Zooked!

Zooked!

Lets just hope it doesn't happen to us next.

Not sure what's going on with Illinois.. they have some big time playmakers.. They're still a team that worries me.

Great win for W. Michigan though.

Probably looking ahead to Ohio State. Thanks Illini for embarrassing the Big Ten and probably knocking us down a peg on the conference power ratings.

I don't like the idea of an angry motivated Illinois team as our hosts next weekend.

When we win 45-10, it's unfortunate that the first text I get from a non-OSU fan is "big 10 sucks."

Illinois sucks.
