Florida International @ NIU predictions
Just like the Huskies, FIU has no quality wins (i.e .teams better than 150 ranking). FIU does have one bad loss though , and that was to Stetson. Don't know much else about FIU. Massey says NIU should be 12 pt favorites. Ill go with
NIU 74
FIU 69
One scary thing is FIU did take Florida Gulf Coast to OT

RE: Florida Interational @ NIU predictions
i wonder if NIU is having trouble getting announcers for the ESPN3 games, I see they removed tomorrow's game from ESPN3 which was originally scheduled. Second time that has happened, interesting.

I really don't mind Key starting over Bradley. I would just like to start him and see what happens. By, next year, Levi will be one of the best players on the team. Kid has loads of talent.

RE: Florida International @ NIU predictions
Wtf! How ask I supposed to watch it without ESPN 3??? What a joke. Who cares if there is an announcer or not. I'm pretty sure every game (home) was streamed last year. We are supposed to get better not worse.

The athletic department doesn't handle ESPN's scheduling. How on earth is the the fault of the Athletic Department? They can't magically tell ESPN to cover the game. ESPN picks and chooses which games they will stream.

This game was originally on the ESPN3 schedule, Id really like to know why it has gone, my guess would be it is related to an NIU decision, but if someone knows for sure, please let us know. This happened one other time this year, the game vanished from the ESPN3 schedule 2 days before the game, and then NIU sent a message out on facebook the morning of the game that the game would not be streamed due to "technical difficulties"

RE: Florida International @ NIU predictions
all the folks that would do the ESPN3 basketball games are going to the bowl game...and of course, they gotta leave days before the game...it is BS and shows the lack of priority in the Athletic Department vis a vis basketball..........surely there are some folks that could stay behind or fly out on Sunday or Monday or Tuesday for a WEDNESDAY game, but, alas, it is only basketball.

This makes perfect sense, and is really frustrating. Not sure how can fight fan apathy to basketball when our own athletic department is apathetic.

NIU Football > NIU Basketball. What's a bigger game NIU vs Boise State in a Bowl game? Or a historically awful NIU basketball team playing a historically awful FIU basketball team? This decision would take me about .1 seconds to make. If you're truly upset, write NIU and tell them you'd like them to hire more game day media folks.
