  1. Article Season Opener Preview: The Northern Illinois Huskies

    Hey Gang, I want to thank the fans and students for great hospitality and just overall being very welcoming. Beautiful campus as well. One of the best road game experiences I’ve had. Please try to have some patience with the team and staff. You know how high the ceiling is for your team...

    Last post, I promise. Let's be honest and no disrespect meant as this board likes to say... there's like 1 guy or 2 on the NIU board who's talking a big game because he's probably butt hurt by the arrogance on this board and drank too much kool aid during the offseason. Every board has that...

    "There is discussion that one of NIUs defensive players has announced the plan is to get Jeff Sims out of the game as soon as possible(Injure Him)." I just need to call out that this quote from earlier in the string is TOTAL BS. I'm pretty close to the NIU program and there's ZERO chance any...

    As douchy as some of you are (looking at you LibertyT), as someone who does know your opponent, I would highly suggest not betting the under. I'm confident both offenses are going to put up some points. NIUs defense is questionable and going to give up more than it's fair share against any...

    Nice cherry pick. My point was that we're not going to roll over and these kids believe in themselves. I'll take the cover on your 39 pt. spread prediction all day LoL

    OL is indeed back. Started to gel late last year once staff got the mix right. Hope they'll take the next step on 9/4. 1. Field goad unit is solid. Kicker hasn't got a ton of opportunities but hasn't missed an extra point in his 2 years and went 7 of 9 in FGs last year. Has a pretty big...

    Well that sucks. Hope you're wrong. :-) I don't know enough about GT to make predictions, but I've been following their fall camp a bit and reading up. I'll say this... NIU is a small program. Guys like me throughout spring and fall attend most practices and every scrimmage, getting very...

    Here’s what I’ll say without dumping an entire scouting report. Offense – I won’t list Lombardi since many have already judged him, but we’ll see if the staff can put him in better positions to succeed. Expect a balanced offense. RB – #30 Harrison Waylee (5-10 190 Covid Fr.) pure speedster. As...

    Good point about Sims. That kid's definitely going to make some noise. Your description of his performance last year perfectly describes most of our team.

    Hey all, NIU fan here. This feels about right. I know a lot of you are expecting to mop us but the reality is we’re in the same position as GT, but at a G5 level of course. The staff is entering year 3 but due to a late hire and Covid he’s only had 1 “real” recruiting class. Last year we had...
