Late two-point conversion gives Spack 100th win at Illinois State

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. – Much more dramatic than easy, Brock Spack secured his 100th win as Illinois State coach Saturday in a thrilling 36-35 Missouri Valley Football Conference victory over Missouri State at Plaster Stadium.

“It wasn’t easy. We don’t do things easy around here,” Spack said. “A lot of good coaches, good administrators, great leadership around Illinois State, great fans and of course great players made this possible.

"They took one man’s vision and turned it into something special. I really appreciate the effort that went behind the 100.”
