Game Notes

#1 Buckeyes hold off the Illini's rally to win 17-10 and stay unbeaten.

Ohio State builds a 17-0 lead in the 1st half on the strength of short TD runs by Chris Wells and Antonio Pittman. However, Illinois stalls the Buckeyes offense allowing the Illini to climb back into the game in the 2nd half. Ohio State manages its lowest production of the year, gaining just 224 yards.

Illinois cuts it to 17-10 on Rashard Mendenhall's 3-yard TD run w/ 1:40 remaining, however, Ohio State recovers the ensuing onside kick.
