CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Luke Altmyer threw a touchdown pass and ran for another and Isaiah Williams caught eight passes for 120 yards to lead Illinois to a 23-17 win over Florida Atlantic in a non-conference game Saturday.
It was a bounce-back game for Altmyer, who threw four interceptions in the 30-13 loss to Penn State last week and was benched in the fourth quarter. He completed 25 of 36 passes for 303 yards and wasn’t picked off.
Florida Atlantic’s Daniel Richardson, in his first start after Casey Thompson suffered a season-ending ACL tear, completed 28 of 49...

A clear-headed approach will help us all navigate the day much more easily. The intelligent Moon in Capricorn starts out by trining eclectic Uranus, encouraging us to think outside the box. That energy will be amplified when the Moon conjoins transformative Pluto. We can stretch our minds when the Moon wanders into free-thinking Aquarius at 7:29 pm EDT, while the Sun will wrap things up with a quincunx to Saturn, reminding us to cut out procrastination and pull off a final victory.

The loss dropped the Marlins one game behind the Cubs for the third and final NL wild card.
Yelich also launched a three-shot in the sixth as...

What starts out as a potentially confusing day shouldn’t end that way. The Moon in adventurous Sagittarius begins with a conflicting square to mystical Neptune in Pisces and the Sun in Virgo, which could make it difficult to know how to proceed with any modicum of productivity. We should be able to organize ourselves once the Moon enters Capricorn at 4:20 pm EDT, bringing with it a sense of purpose. A lunar sextile to Saturn will help us make the most of what’s available.
