Yea I'd like some of what he's smoking. It wasn't quite as horrific as the Iowa game but that isn't saying much.

Discount stand under visitor section and not hot dogs 1 hour before game. Offense nothing again. Frustrating to watch just like Bowl game last year. Defense great. I was impressed with Utah fans. Nice an bought plenty of concessions. Band sounded and looked great. Student section could have more attendance but for most part stuck around for most of game. Next week Huskies will bring it to Central. Mark my words this game be a big win for NIU. Call me crazy but I feel it and even this offense will find success against and D will shut Central down.

Ok, I'll bite, you're crazy. With a capital 'K' too.

I was feeling ok about the team in MAC play, until some other posters clearly pointed out the defense will HAVE TO start getting dis-heartened from seeing such a low level of scoring from the O. That indeed will weigh on them...so now I'm pretty depressed about this year's potential.

CMU game kinda makes it or breaks it. If we can score 3 TDs on offense I will have some hope we can get better as the year progresses and be competitive in MAC play. If not, it just looks so dismal for the year. But for FSU and BYU, I really can't see us scoring a offensive TD, it's that rock bottom.

Those late in the season home games with no offense and an disheartened defense? Attendance under 10K. That will really put more pressure on Frazier for a change.

We we will see next week how silly my predication is.

Ute fan here. Wow, was that an ugly game offensively--for both teams. Your defense is very good. Sutton Smith is a great player.

I really had a great time at the game. Nice game atmosphere. I enjoyed visiting, and I hope you guys have a great year from here on out. I'll be watching--especially when you play Utah's rival, BYU.

We'll see you next year, when you come to our house. I hope some of you can make it out for the game.

Go Huskies!

Utah fans on West Side were great and added to the atmosphere. Thanks for coming out!

NIU fans I talked to were great, too. My whole family came along for the trip, and we enjoyed ourselves a lot. I'm thinking about coming up again next year when BYU visits. I am a Utah fan to the core, but my wife is a BYU fan, so I'm thinking there's a good chance. (Go ahead and pound BYU--this year and next year. I won't feel bad!)
