Quote:Nobody with the exception of a complete homer/crazy person thinks NIU is going to beat OSU next year. That includes almost everyone on this board.

Yeah, but the writer had it like due to the laws of the universe, there's no way it could be competitive and an upset would be childhood fantasy. I can see him saying something like "Rest assured, we'll win this game just as we should expect to beat Northwestern or Minnesota, but it helps our SoS as it's not just yet-another-G5..."

Of course, with WMU and NIU coming at them -- it would be nice to see them not survive a MAC West showdown unscathed. :)
