Illinois orchestrated a thrilling finish to defeat No. 21 Southern California 34-32. Luke Altmyer led the Illini on a final drive, capped by David Olano’s 41-yard field goal as the clock hit zero.

Illinois is eager for redemption following last week’s setback and is now part of an EA Sports “College Football 26” simulation against the USC Trojans. Fans wonder if the Illini can secure a much-needed win, or if the Trojans will prove too formidable.
