Elsewhere in the Big Ten, No. 23 Illinois knocked off No. 22 USC 34-32 on a field goal as time expired to erase an embarrassing loss to Indiana in Week 4.The SEC continued to cannibalize itself with No. 16 Alabama knocking off No. 3 Georgia 24-21 in Athens, Georgia, while No. 11 Ole Miss earned a 24-19 win over No. 4 LSU.
