#25 Michigan 27 Illinois 17

Michigan comes out of Champaign with a huge 27-17 victory over the Fighting Illini. Michigan came over key injuries that kept Mike Hart out and caused Chad Henne to miss time during the game. The Wolverines turned the ball over three times coming away with just one takeaway of their own in the fourth quarter on a muffed punt.

Carlos Brown had a great game, rushing for over 100 yards in his first career start. Mario Manningham also came up with some big catches and turned in his third consecutive 100-yard game. It was another crazy Saturday of college football that should have Michigan shooting up the poll.

We'll have another post further recapping the Michigan win after the press conference on Monday. Thank you to anyone who listened to us on our second WCBN road broadcast. Tune into wcbn.org or 88.3 FM in Ann Arbor to hear us break down the win on Extra Points. We'll also have a photo gallery on the way with pictures we took down on the sideline at the end of the game. Until then, goodnight and GO BLUE!
