Ha the most overrated team in college football finally lost today to Illinois at home! Juice Williams is the man!

Oh also Oregon will be moving up to number 2 hopefully. :) GO DUCKS! :P

Wow, if KU can win out, their chances at playing in a BCS bowl just got significantly better. If they are able to knock off two top 10 teams, they should be able to leapfrog somebody.

They definitely will be in a BCS bowl. If they win out I'm afraid they can leapfrog Oregon and get in the National Championship.

If KU beats Mo and Ok, they have a good argument.

But right now Oregon and LSU are in the catbird seat.

Suckeyes Blow!!!

Williams leads Illini to upset of No. Ohio State

By RUSTY MILLER, AP Sports Writer

November 10, 2007

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- In this season of upsets, top-ranked Ohio State was the latest to fall.

Juice Williams provided the big plays on the ground and through the air, spurring Illinois to a stunning 28-21 victory on Saturday night and throwing open the national title race.

It was the first time Illinois (8-3, 5-2 Big Ten) had ever beaten a No. 1, losing all 17 previous games. The defeat also ended a record streak of 20 Big Ten wins in a row by Ohio State (10-1, 6-1).

Williams, criticized all year because of his errant passing, tossed four touchdown passes. Rashard Mendenhall set an Illinois season record while rushing for 88 yards on 26 carries.

The Illini rushed for 260 yards against an Ohio State defense that came in allowing just 65 yards on the ground per game.

Although the defeat crippled Ohio State's dreams of a national championship, it merely knocked them into a tie for the top spot in the Big Ten because of Michigan's earlier loss to Wisconsin.

Not since Nov. 14, 1959, had Michigan and Ohio State both lost the week before their annual year-end grudge match, which once again this season will decide the champion.

But this was not the way either team wanted to come into the game.

:-P
