Yes, when you click on the poster's profile there is reputation, the current reputation is in green, followed by details (who rated the poster and what if anything he/she said), followed by"rate user", which is how you can rate posters. However, unless it has changed, you need a certain number of posts in order to rate posters. I think maybe between 500 to 1,000 posts; I don't remember since it has been quite a while since my "rate user" option was activated.

Anybody know if there are high lites with the NIU radio call out there. I’d love to hear Baker in the 4th quarter and at the end. Goodbye Buffalo?
Here we go: BILL BAKER

Thanks. Enjoy Bill Baker with the call much more! Only thing is that his good bye Buffalo (or would it be Detroit) was not included.

Seven division titles in nine years, and four MAC Championships. NIU is clearly the class of the MAC, it is very difficult to sustain this type of success with the target always on your back.
Great finish by the players, and the coaches, and that definitely includes Carey!

Yeah...Maybe someone was listening on radio can tell us if there was a “Goodbye *******!” or not.
We do know it’s still: “TOUCHDOWN!....TOUCHDOWN NORTHERN ILLINOIS!!”

I have such a huge personal connection with this program, as they epitomize the heart and soul of every NIU student and alumni. We've always played the role of an underdog, many of us are from blue collar families, or many of us are the first in our families to go to college. Heck, most of the time, people from bigger schools don't even give us the light of day. But it doesn't matter if it's in the office or on the football field, we don't back down to anyone and give it 110%. You always have to bring your A game when a Huskie is in the room.
Now specifically for the players. These kids are the most humble, down to earth group and I am incredibly thankful of the culture they are a part of. Whether that be the winning or the entire attitude of The Hard Way. After the game, many of the players took the time to shake hands with the fans, take photos and chit chat with them. They're big enough to play with the big boys, but not too big to be there for the fans.
For all of these reasons, I'm thankful. I thankful to be sharing this forum of passionate fans. For all the good and all the bad. DeKalb, Illinois is always going to be a place I called home for 5 years. NIU is always going to be my favorite sports team.
GOOOOOOO HUSKIES!!!!
Well said brother!!! Go Huskies!!
THE HARD WAY.

Its another screw job by espn made for tv. Unless your a michigan school, how can NIU fans get to Detroit by 6pm on a Friday. It would require most people to take a day off work. Same with Buffalo.

RE: Congrats 2018 MAC Champions
Are they going to have MACC hoodies at VCB? I have my old one from 2011 that I cherish and still wear but thought I would, uh, update my wardrobe.

Yes! Thank you for the link. My daughter told me that in the end he said “goodbye Buffalo, hello Mac championship”. Would love to hear the final seconds.

Nice win Huskies! Once that dlineman came back who was kicked out of the game vs us, I could tell that you guys had a real chance. Really freed up what Smith and helped you disrupt what Buffalo was trying to do.
Congrats on a great season. Any insight on how to beat BYU?

Hold them to 6 points and you should have a great chance!

Protect the QB and I think you'll be able to get the occasional big play on them.
