Football: Illinois 27 - Washington 20. Tops for thrills in the Illinois-Washington game with long romps featuring the close victory of the 'Illini' over the 'Huskies,' 27-20. VS college football game. Lots of rushing yardage. Cheerleaders bow in "we're not worthy" sort of way. Nifty play - one Illinois player runs the ball, and just as he's being tackled, the ball pops out of his hands and into the hands of a teammate -- whether purposefully or not, I don't know, but it worked, as the second man is tackled near or in the end zone.
