It seems we got another win we were not aware of!

More Information:
The Northern Illinois Huskies will host the Wisconsin Badgers on Saturday, September 17, 2011 in the Soldier Field Showdown II. The Huskies are coming off their best season ever with 12-3 record and a win over Fresno State in the Humanitarian Bowl while the Badgers finished 11-2 and earned a trip to the Rose Bowl where they lost to TCU. Dave Doeren was the defensive coordinator for the Badgers in that game and is now the new head football coach for the Huskies. It is sure to be an exciting game between two great teams.

Tickets go on sale to the general public on May 9th. Priority tickets will be available to NIU Huskies Season Ticket Holders prior to this. Please visit www.hiskiefootball2011.com for more information.

Kansas of the big 12 looks to have the same website concept...except theirs is not buggy or riddled with errors.

Hopefully ours will look that cool soon.

why is the ath. dept advertising the 2011 website when it's not done yet? hoaky IMO. it was in the SF/season ticket release last week and still not done..

Barsema is the connection. I believe they lived close to each other for a while in California. Lott got into business/investing during and after his football career and they've grown to know each other.

He's also been back to the business school a few times to talk. Pretty impressive guy, very intense as you would expect. Also can barely walk after his playing days in the NFL.

Ha, that I don't know, I thought was asking the connection to NIU, not to the thread.

Maybe Lott is designing the NIU website

to this thread? no connection really

Perfect.
Though seems little odd it's not 2:30 which is usual TV time.

I don't think that the TV gods got their hands on this yet.

However if the TV people do get involved, it is more likely that the game is only moved back to 2:30 and less likely that it will be moved up to 11am.

2:00 is perfect. Plenty of time for
