Series history for Oregon football vs. Illinois

I was surprised to see that these two teams have faced each other before because there isn't a ton of history between them but Oregon holds a 2-1 all-time lead. The last time these two faced was in 1995 and then before that it was 1993 and the Ducks won both. Illinois' only win in the series was all the way back in 1970.
