First time poster here and sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Enjoy your guys posts here and I'm a big NIU football fan. ESPN ranked us only behind the FIU Panthers and Utah State needless to say I am attempting to hold back tears that we are even in the same sentence as these teams. On the plus side Notre Dame was also on the list. I provided the link below.

i bet either of those teams would beat us. handily.
Idaho's lone win over Cal Poly secured Vandals a lower ranking than NIU among top ten worst.
Hard to figure since Huskies won on the road.
final score Idaho 5td NIU Defence 3td NIU offense 3td Idaho had240plus yards than NIU. Who really won that game? Really liked their coach's positive attitude
Last time I checked season results on both NIU and Idaho websites, NIU won.
The rest of the story is secondary or incidental just as are the records and stats of all the oppeonets played by both schools.
NIU is like the exact opposite of USF.

General Jim, thanks for taking over the 'bearer of bad news'. I had been posting the Bottom 10 over the past several weeks. The only addition that I would add is to ensure to cap the post with a '
' icon as JoeN and team continue to take the bite out of the big '
' sandwich.
NIU and Notre Dame need to play a game at the end of the season to see who is crappier.
A "Toilet Bowl" game of sorts.
This should probably be it’s own thread.
No offense general, but the point of this thread is? I think we all know the position NIU is in this year.

Very bad idea. ND would kill us. Now, Rice, Utah State or FIU would be better matchups. They are better than most if not all MAC teams. Just because they suck doesn't mean they suck as bad as they look because of the competition they play.
truer words were never spoken.
ND-NIU.......the demetrius jones classic
Utah State and FIU ??? They aren't in the Big 10 or SEC. Their competition isn't that much better then ours if at all.
