Couldn't look any more dominant today. I know it's only the Emus but we certainly didn't destroy them. Not to overlook Ohio U but I am really worried about this WMU game. When the whole row the boat thing started I never imagined anything other than a pathetic John boat. Unfortunately for the huskies it looks to be a much larger vessel.

I'm typing up a letter of forfeiture as we speak. I'll make sure to pass it around before I send it.

RE: Western Michigan
Obviously a impressive game by WMU. But it was against a bad team. The broncos are talented and fast. But they also haven't played a big game in years. If it comes down to NIU vs WMU for the West we'll see how they respond. Their only other chances to make a statement this year was against Purdue (they lost), and Toledo (they lost). So we'll see what happens when everything is on the line (hopefully) and they are playing a talented team.

So smoking BG at BG was not a statement win? They're the defending champs and heading to the MACC game. The score was 26-14, but with one minute left Franklin was heading into the end zone, and he took a knee to run the clock out. It was never even a close game.
But I agree, in a tight game I'd give you guys an edge simply based on experience alone.

It will always be a joke. Even when you're successful I will always have PJ on YouTube to watch for a good laugh.

If/when we beat you to end the regular season, I don't think laughing will be your reaction. More like smashing your monitor with a sledge-hammer. :)
If we beat @CMU (which I get lambasted for saying it's a 45% chance) -- NIU should be very afraid...

NIU very very afraid.......? Todd, knock this crap off. Either team can win that game, but you actually think NIU would be afraid? Jesus.....
PJ is a Huskie, but when we sent him to help out WMU, you guys F'ed him all up. Got him dancing, rowing, more rowing, playing Pokemon in the meeting rooms. I blame WMU, you guys are not a good influence.

The only reason WMU is successful is because of an NIU education. Don't forget that.

In better terms -- if WMU beats @CMU (we Rarely WIN there) -- expect a more difficult team to face than previously expected.

Yes of course... he was a quiet, super-polite, extremely soft-spoken lad who would sit in the back of the classroom with huge shyness until WMU brought him into the world of dance & row-boating. :)

No, he used to score TD's, beating ELITE teams in the ACC and SEC. Now you bastards have him dressing in skirts and dancing on UTube... Rowing a freaking boat, and doing gang-dome style. WMU is improved, but talk to us about how good you are after years of winning.... I give the Huskies 50% chance of winning, and 0% chance of dancing to Row Row Row your boat.... You want to know how I know you are gay?

If WMU beats NIU it's the biggest win of their season if not the last 5 years of their program. If NIU wins it's just another day at the office.

NIU is shaking in their little space boots. You do realize a lot of these players played FSU in the orange bowl and have beaten the PIG10 3 games in a row. They will never be afraid of WMU and no MAC team should ever be afraid of their opponent. I just hope they don't take WMU lightly as they aren't the cellar dwellers of years past and much improved. No doubt NIU has to play a good game to win.

Well then, let's just make it another day at work. We'll come in late, knock off early and take a long lunch all while doing what we need to do.
