NIU to play Idaho in 2007
That's what I'm hearing out here in the Palouse.

I'm completley jacked about this for multiple reasons.

1) The university of Idaho is 8 miles from Pullman
2) It's a guranteed win. Idaho sucks.
3) It's a game against the WAC
4) it's a home and home (they go to DeKalbin 2009)
5) I finally get to see them live for the first time in years!

I know very few of you (if any) will make it out here but I will say the Palouse in September is incredible.

I am quite confused by this.

If this is true, this would have to confirm the 7 game MAC schedule.

Does this mean we will have at least 3 OOC home games in 2009? I am almost positive we were scheduled to host Western Illinois in 2009, along with Wisconsin, and now Idaho.

we have our 4 OCG for 07. Either we are replacing SIU or playinf 7 conf games. I would be against playing anything less then 8 con games.

We would have to be replacing SIU, which is fine by me. I could care less about playing them. The SIU game might actually get pushed back until 2008 so then we will have a full four game schedule in 2008 (alabama, tennessee, siu, and navy).

I bet SIU gets pushed back to 2008 so we have a full four game OOC schedule set for then.

If SIU is gone, we have AT MOST, 4 home games this year. If the supposed 7 game MAC schedule gets flipped around, then possibly only 3.

That SUCKS. I can't see that happening.

Sure, it sucks, but Idaho is pretty much a guaranteed win. SIU is better than Idaho.

btw, Idaho has an dome football stadium that is used for basketball and other events as well. It's an interesting facility that only seats 16-17K for football.

Alaska Airlines flies direct to Pullman/Moscow. Can be pricey (~$450-600) but if you do it early you can get a decent deal. I think the airport has just been certified for 737s...so maybe ya'll can charter a flight. lmfao

You can also fly into the Lewiston/Clarkston valley. Delta is set up there and i ust got a ticket for Chi-town for $400. That is a 45 minutes drive to the area.

Spokane is the largest "major" airport. It's about a 1.5 - 2 hour drive.

If this happens I'll answer all questions for you coming.

Oh yeah...the Kibbie dome is...well...interesting.
