Wilson rushed for 81 yards on 20 carries and caught six passes for 46 yards. He carried the ball seven times in UNT's loss to UTEP to end the regular season. Wilson threw up multiple times during the game. Littrell said Wilson wasn't ill and became sick after seeing his most action in nearly two months.
