ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — Ayo Dosunmu hit a contested jumper from the free throw line with 0.5 seconds remaining to give No. 21 Illinois a 64-62 victory over Michigan. The Illini moved into sole possession of first place in the Big Ten for the moment, and they extended their winning streak to six with a hard-fought victory over the Wolverines. Michigan has lost four in a row and may again be without forward Isaiah Livers because of an injury. Dosunmu finished with 27 points. Zavier Simpson scored 17 for Michigan. Livers returned from a six-game absence but was hurt again in the second half.

Nebraska was led by Cam Mack with 19 points while Thorir Thorbjarnarson had 17.

MOBILE, Ala. (AP) — Washington State quarterback Anthony Gordon led the North to three touchdowns in the third quarter of a 31-17 victory over the South in the Senior Bowl on Saturday.

He was sporting the No. 3 jersey in honor of late Washington State quarterback Tyler Hilinski. The game's most highly touted passer, Oregon's Justin Herbert, also shined with 83 yards and a touchdown in the first quarter.
