CHAMPAIGN - The Illinois football team will try to snap a six game losing streak Saturday against Minnesota - and in a touch of irony, Tim Beckman's former team Toledo cracked the top 25 this week.

As for Illinois, they will probably be the underdogs in their last three games. Beckman says their goal is to get one more win - any win - not for him, but for the seniors.
