States have a right to make interpretations of the rules. And BTW, Illinois was the co-author of the horse-collar rule. This was actually the intent of the rule until the NF messed it up as usual. This is much more inline with the NF rules than the interpretation the NF gave back in July. The NF even wanted a horse-collar foul on a player that fumbled the ball, which clearly was not the definition of the horse collar.
