UCLA beats Illinois, 22-14

The Bruins kept their undefeated season alive with a home win over Illinois on Friday, Nov. 13.

UCLA is not only 10-0 for the first time since 1998, but now one win away from clinching a spot in the Big Ten championship game. With a 7-0 conference record, the Bruins just need to win one of their final two games − against Michigan and USC − to make the conference title game.

It would be UCLA's first conference championship game since 2012, when it was in the Pac-12. The Bruins are seeking their first conference title since winning the Pac-10 in 1998.
