@NIU_Football has been selected to win the MAC West Division in the 2018 MAC Football Media Preseason Poll! #theHardWay #MACtion

( Ohio picked in the East)

Always a good thing to have high expectations. Up to our guys to meet it and exceed it...

Good thing, I hope this team steps up and is special, feels like they should be.

Definitely a good thing to expect being good. Toledo is breaking in a new QB which is probably why we’re favored.

Good. Now let’s go out and win the MAC. No excuses.

Toledo does have more votes to win MAC championship than NIU, and Ohio appears to be consensus champion

If there’s a year for a WTF Mac Champion, it’s this one.

Which means I’m tossing my hat in the ring for Eastern Michigan.

I look forward to finally seeing a game in person in DeKalb this year but if by that point we have a decent QB, you are getting your asses kicked. Sorry...

Well that put a stop to the 27 posts about how we get no respect, the Ohio-bias, plus the Toledo is always favored rants.

We win the MAC? cool..I am ready to tear down the goalposts at Huskie Stadium, and throw it in the river!

The respect rants never end. Someone just made a thread about how the NIU should feel disrespected about being 13 point road underdogs to a good Big Ten team. The respect angle will never end on this board.

MAC news media is notoriously bad at picking conference champ.

So don't bet the farm on Ohio U.

Don't disrespect my feeling of disrespect!
