The University of Illinois has endured a rough season, stumbling to a 4-8 record, but in their final game of the season the Illini weren't just lying down â not quite.

U of I receiver Steve Hull provided a bright spot in Saturday afternoon's 37-34 loss to Northwestern. The receiver took a fall while running his route, ending up on his rear end in the end zone, but with some accidental magic that proved to be the perfect position to haul in a 25-yard touchdown from Nathan Scheelhaase.
