Alright you insufferable crybabies, there's still a football game on Saturday. We haven't played these buttmunchers since that fateful night in Detroit in 2010. I didn't sleep so good for a while after that, so they owe me.

We stop the run, they throw for 857 yards, we run them over 2/3 the time, the other 1/3 we throw bubble screens into the dirt. McIntosh comes in at safety and gets two picks, somehow one of the passes comes from Drew Hare.

NIU 24
MU 19

Huskies 28
Redhawks 21

With Hare NIU maybe manages 17 points. With Maddie NIU scores 31.

Should win, but it won't be more than a two possession W.

NIU - 17

Miami (O) - 24

should win......at the beginning of the season I had this penciled in as a 2 touchdown win (minimum), now I'm not very sure about the winning margin

Not as sure as a betting lock as last week, but not a bad bet that Miami covers. They have a good passing game that eats NIU alive. If Maddie plays I would downgrade my chance that Miami covers IMO.

I think NIU fans are being dramatic.

NIU 45
Miami 24

Logic says we beat Kent St by 3, Umass beat kent state by 23, and Miami beat Umass by 3...so that has us losing by 26...

Also, Miami lost by less to Cinci than Toledo did and Toledo beat CMU

However...with home field advantage..

Miami 27
NIU 21

Just win.

5-2 is OK+ for a "rebuilding year".

I think that every one of our remaining games will be a real challenge to win because for the first time in several years, the rest of the MAC is smelling blood and looking to go in for the kill. Add that to the problems we are having, and it could be quite a rough ride from here on out. Let's hope not. Start with a win on Saturday.

I predict people will ***** no matter the outcome.

+1

Huskies win 38 - 24.Vegas offense returns and defense plays well against a good Miami offense

Not to make any excuses for last week but just found out that our head sets were not working for some of the game. per Media Services FB page.

Pick 6 by McIntosh late in 4th qtr to give NIU the win. Carey so impressed with how McIntosh received the pick, that it sets up a huge #1 WR controversy and competition with Mc and Brown.

Ha! Can he play center and kick, too?

I hope we win and predict a close game that could go either way. My wife and I are driving to the game from our home in Ohio and meeting my daughter and her family who are driving in from Wisky. We will have 5 people including my daughter (a Miami grad) and my son in law a BGSU grad.

My wife is recovering from achilles surgery and is in a walking boot. If anyone has a suggestion for where to park to limit her walking please post some suggestions. I plan to call the ticket office tomorrow to see if they have seats avail that would not require my wife to have a walk up a long ramp.
