BSU has played NIU 40 times and holds a 20wins-18 losses-2draws advantage.
At games at BSU: NIU has a 10-7 record.
At games at NIU BSU leads 13-8-2 !!!! So much for home field advantage?? - 5 games
For reference: (BSU Against Toledo: Series is tied at 19-19 with Toledo winning the last game this year.)
Although we have won the last 4 straight, BSU has played us tough under Pete Lembo, who despises NIU.
REmember last years voting that nearly cost us a trip to the Orange Bowl. Pete Lembo was the only MAC coach to low ball NIU!
They have a huge chip on their shoulder coming into this game and will be prepared to the max.
A win for BSU will give them payback for the last two years and the National limelight and the MAC West championship.
NIU will need to play its best game to prevent an upset.
This game will be a nationally televised clash of the MAC West Titans!
Maybe some Toledo fans can share some advice on how to beat Pete Lembo.
I majored in history, graduated with honors. History is meaningless in this case.
Well, I majored in foreign affairs. History is not meaningless there. I like to look at the history of any foreigner I'm having an affair with.

So, if I said I'm socially inept, a poor communicator, and generally afraid of women, what would you assume my major to have been?

Gosh, was it that easy to figure out?
The engineering part, not my minor in LGBT studies.

You painted a great picture of engineering students. Did you have a pocket protector and masking tape on your dark-rimmed glasses?
I enjoyed my major: female anatomy. I really appreciated getting into my homework.

You forgot about us engineering students with the Post slide rule case strap to our belt. Every student was required to take Into to Slide Rule 101 before Physics in the pre calculator days. I hated the black rim glasses but now D Wade wears them as a fashion statement. Strange.

RE: B-ball game
I am excited that we have 3 centers. They might not be able to play but we have not had a legit one since Kowal.

Yes, at Northwestern I had a slide rule (even though I was not an engineering major). I may still have that old slide rule somewhere. I wonder what I can get for it on eBay? Or, I can always use it as a straight-edge or even a door stop.

Value of slide rule and case with belt loop is around $50. New in 1969 was $14.99.
