So when Monty’s Spartans play Virginia for the National Title next Monday, it’s really NIU vs GB reincarnated.

The site of that Mid-Con title game, Brown County Veterans Memorial Arena, is slated to be razed this summer.

I remember him torching us at Chick Evans. Everyone had signs with his picture but with his face lined out. He was good.

At least NIU got some sweet revenge in 2000 vs the Final Four bound Badgers

Felt like he ripped my heart out every time we played UWGB in Chick Evans. Guy was flat-out money.

Quote:When UWGB beat NIU in 1992 for a third time to capture the conference championship, Huskie coach Jim Molinari was asked afterwards about the game's turning point. Molinari replied: "This game was over 22 years ago when Dick Bennett and his wife went out for a romantic evening.

That is pretty funny.
