Around SBN: NFL Week One: Previews and Predictions for all 15 games

Kudos to Cary Groth

University of Nevada Athletics Director Cary Groth, who formerly held the same position at NIU, has been able to schedule home football games against UCLA and Arizona !!

That's quite an accomplishment considering their stadium seats 29,993 , only slightly more than Huskie Stadium.

This should give us hope that NIU can do something similar.  The word out  there is that NIU AD Jeff Compher is actively working to bring some BCS teams into Huskie Stadium and that would be most welcome.
