Previously unbeaten, #2 Illinois had an 8-7 lead with minutes left in a game at home against Michigan, when a fumble gave the Wolverines the ball 11 yards from goal, setting up Mel Anthony's winning score for a 14-8 upset.

I do believe the illini would have won the national championship against Texas but never happened bummer.

63 was a good year for Chicago sports with these teams winning there championships

Loyola (Illinois) wins 60-58 over Cincinnati-Ncaa BB champs

1912 T202 Hassan Triple Folders Chicago Cubs Checklist

Distributed by Hassan cigarettes in 1912 this card is a close relative of the T205. T202 baseball card set consists of 132 cards that measure 2¼" by 5½" when unfolded. All have similar cards in the T205 set. Many of the players are repeated in this set.

The difference between T202 cards and T205 cards is the team logos are missing and borders are white instead of gold.

The cards were produced in 2 factories, 649-black-back & 30-red-back.

Card backs follow the format of the fronts. Each player card has a biography on the back, but unlike the T205 cards they resemble, there are no lines of statistics used here. The center panel even has accompanying text which describes the action taking place on the photo shown on the card front. All three elements have a Hassan advertisement below the text.
