Illinois–Purdue Football Rivalry
The Illinois–Purdue football rivalry is an American college football rivalry between the Illinois Fighting Illini football team of the University of Illinois and Purdue Boilermakers football team of Purdue University. The Purdue Cannon is presented to the winner of the game. Purdue leads the series 47–45–6.

It was presented at halftime to the schools' athletic directors, Doug Mills ...
