If ECU loses its free game in my opinion.
Perception will matter but 7 is right on all the other stuff. Panic mode can wait til we see what happens. NIU and toledo are the best in the conference and NIU is arguably the 2nd best choice for an access bowl behind ECU at the moment.
And if you (not you, you in general) end up bitching about NIU's season as one of the 5 youngest teams in the country ending up "only 12-1" and they miss out on an Access Bowl, then you (again, not you) are still an idiot.
That's my point, people here are being completely bogus.
I came in thinking 8-4 or 9-3 and as long as NIU is in the west race I would be happy. I still think that's obviously the case. With adjusted expectations id be disappointed with 4 losses and probably 3 unless it's in the Mac title game.
If I ***** if NIU goes 12-1 please ban me. I may complain about in game moments but the season in general would be ridiculous.
It's just crazy to think with the injuries NIU has had to important players the fact they're 2-1 on the road, and teams like ball state looking bad and toledo really looking like the only comparable team in the conference with said issues that NIU play as well as it has.
People should be happy.
Complaints and rational objections are fine. Making it seem like it's panic time seems absurd.
I wonder if Alabama fans are calling for Saban's head right now. I bet at least some are. I bet they are that unreasonable.

On a side note the only 2 schools on this list that Carey would go to and is not under qualified for are IU and ISU.

Man, I should really just not read these threads then. Nobody will ever be happy. It's all for naught! I'm having an existential crisis!

I bet there are some A&M fans calling for Sumlin's head as well, just as there are some Oklahoma fans calling for Stoops' head. Every fan base has a group of fans that want to fire the coach after every loss.
