Moments in games matter.   Completing a pass on the sideline with 3rd and 14 toe in

 

double reverse touchdown pass in the red zone by Illinois

 

fumble by usc.

no pressure or sacks by usc.

75 yard trick play td called back because a fat center is wandering around not even engaged   Non contact penalty.

USC has two plays to gain 6 yards and throws on both to lose the ball at midfield.

as these happen the line play shifts on both sides of the ball to Illinois.

This game is quickly adopted the Illini tempo.  Like Playing michigan.

this is quickly looking like a 35-21 Illinois win .
