Ohio's game-winning field goal.
Another week, another devastating home loss on a last-second field goal. In chilly, half-empty Memorial Stadium, Illinois lost 20-17 to Ohio Saturday night despite outgaining the Bobcats 397 - 238. In the end, special teams miscues and 5 turnovers were the difference - the final turnover a Kyle Hudson fumble at the 16 yd line that setup Ohio's game-winning field goal.
