I'm wondering who bailed on the Wake Forest game...NIU or Wake? Or did it get moved to a different year.

I'm guessing it was Wake or it is moved to a different year.

Should easily go 2-2 OOC but 3-1 would be nice!

Quite a contrast. A school in Vegas, and a religious school.

4-0 or bust

3-1 is so last year. 4-0 is the new standard.

Hey Arkansas lost to Rutgers and Northwestern is beatable as well so you never know!

NIU Football 2014 Schedule
Thursday, Aug. 28 - Presbyterian College (DeKalb, Ill.)
Saturday, Sept. 6 - at Northwestern (Evanston, Ill.)
Saturday, Sept. 13 - at UNLV (Las Vegas, Nev.)
Saturday, Sept. 20 - at Arkansas (Fayetteville, Ark.)

Pissed about Wake because it's not a bad drive for me but I guess I got a reason to go to Vegas again!

And 5 home games isn't terrible since one game is within an hour drive for most fans

we were extremely lucky to have a lynch follow harnish.....are we thinking the next man up can provide similar transition? I harbor no hopes of a 2012-esque transition - which is why i'm on the BCS or bust bandwagon this year.

Tell me about it. I live in Raleigh.

Why is our opening game on a Thursday? Unless ESPN is paying big money for this... Huh!?

Presbyterian is a huge draw and ESPN only wants to cover us if it involves the Blue Hose!

We must be on tv on Thursday, August 28th. That is the first night of collegiate football for 2014.

Has to be it.

Frazier really holding true to: "ANYTIME, ANYPLACE, ANYWHERE."

I hope the league office gives us a home game to open the league season. They didn't do us that favor this year.
