Teams always practice tip ball drills. This Illinois interception is exactly why.
Minnesota quarterback Demry Croft chucked a ball up and it was tipped by an Illinois defender into Illini defensive back Stanley Green’s hands.

Although Green didn’t return it all the way to the end zone, it was still a big interception because the Minnesota offense was rolling.
