it looks like there has been a lot of media attention given to the first game you tWerps have against NIU... I believe this is going to be an awesome game... NIU 27 - tWerps 24

the MAC rules!!!

Yeah, that'll happen. :rolleyes: When hell freezes over. :laugh:

NIU has gotten much better in the last couple of years... they have a running back that is getting a lot of media attention... their running offence is tough to handle... I don't think the tWerps will be able to stop them...

If your team is so good then why do we get all kinds of flack for scheduling cupcakes. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Um? Who is NIU?

First, KingBob is not an NIU fan(Toledo, I believe). Second I hope you guys look past us to FSU(but I don't think your coach will let that happen). Your fans will likely be in for a rude awakening. We may not win but you will know who we are after the game. Good luck this year, except against Northern Illinois University(also known as NIU) of course.

yes, RobertN is correct in stating that I am an Toledo Rocket fan first!!! (Toledo Rockets... kinda just rolls off the tounge...) Anyway, I am also an avid MAC fan and support my fellow brethern... So, let me just say this... I will be whole heartedly routing for the NIU Huskies to beat the ba-geebies out of the overrated... overblown (tWerps)

Hey, anytime you want to pit the size or your tWerp coach against ours... we shall need the oversized scale... :roflol:

(also, your Offensive Coordinator is from the MAC... you can keep him) :wave:

It seems like lunacy runs abandon throughout the MAC. Why don't you tell your league officials to change the title so as you don't seem to represent a greasy, nasty, fast food item. :stupid:

BTW, how many Div. 1 National titles does the MAC own? Maryland has more confrence titles in football than basketball, a National title in football, and the following have been coaches of our, uhem, basketball school, as you say, for football:

Bear Bryant, Jerry Claiborne, Bobby Ross, and now the Firdge.

Let's see, you omniscient football wizard, if you happen to recognize any of those names. If not, maybe mommie and daddy will let you go out and play more often so as you can view the real world.

Your flames serves as nothing more than pure jealousy, not that I blame you for it.

NIU=Not Identifiable or Understandable

Toledo=*big laugh ensues* Wasn't your town represented wholeheartedly by a cross-dressing psycho by the name of Klinger... bwaaahhhaaaaah

:snore: Glad you think we are a cupcake. By the way, did you know the line is only 8(although, I have to admit it is apparently up from the 7.5 at which it started)? Hope you are coming out to DeKalb for the game so I can see you go home :crying: Oh,yeah, I almost forgot I am REALLY impressed VERY jealous of your teams history(not).

P.S. Good luck to you guys this year(after our game of course).

For Metro 6775:
NIU is short for Directional Indianna Community College, and their mascot is a Saluki, which is some kind of a dog.

I'm glad that the NIU fans are enthusiastic about the game, I wouldn't expect anything less. But I predict pain. Turner will be taken off the field late in the first quarter.

And I predict that you have been reading WAY too much of the Maryland Insiders site. Not to mention not being very smart for listening to those fans who obviously do not have a grasp on college football. As for Turner, I doubt it but anything is possible when you play a good team like Maryland.

Robert = hook.line.sinker

You are correct, I don't know a thing about football. But I betcha it will be a tough game for all concerned. NIU is not taken as lightly by the MD coaches and players as they are by us fans. It should be a good game for the first half, but NIU will be attrited and the Terps will win going away, barring a rash of turnovers.

[quote="RobertN"] [quote="gmaniac1"] [quote="KingBob"] yes, RobertN is correct in stating that I am an Toledo Rocket fan first!!!

Y'all do know...that this NIU bunch beat Wake last year
and almost beat them the year before...losing by
3 at Wake.

Also last year they lost at Wisconsin 24-21 and
the Badgers had to come from behind to win that
one.

The year before...they lost 17-12 at Illinois, and the
Illini were a Nationally ranked team then. If I'm not
mistaken...they were the Big 10 Champs.

Quote:Friggin' Toledo, what a joke.

I'm sure Joe Paterno would agree with you. :stupid:

Prediction: Maryland 31 Northern Illinois 27

The article in the post today about Mike Turner from No. Illi was enough to get me a little scared but I still think the terps can beat them if they play hard.

1:00 left in 4th Qtr.

Tied at 13, going to overtime.

Do you guys believe in NIU and the MAC now? No matter who wins, you have to admit we are better than you thought!

NIU wins 20-13 in overtime! Insert mouth in foot Terpy!
