All of it

I have to agree, NIU looks the best in 2010. Could be Jerry Kill’s audition for the soon-to-be vacant (after 2010 season, of course) Illinois job. If that’s going to happen it is going to have to be Chandler to step up as a leader both on and off the field. Could be a long spring for No. 12 if his passing game doesn’t take off as expected.

It's funny to think abou that stuff after the Novak era.

We all knew Novak wasn’t going anywhere, but now we actually have to be aware that if our program excells, then our coach is probably on to greener pastures.

Oh well…..I suppose there are bigger problems to have.

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

Hahahahaha

No way Kill goes to Illinois. They have some sort of superiority complex and he won’t even be on their radar.

However, if NIU goes undefeated next year and heads to the BCS (unlikely, but not impossible), then LOOK OUT.

Right now we just need to worry about improving on the offensive side of the ball. Limegrover is no Petrino.

Good question

I haven’t researched it thoroughly, but here’s how it breaks down:

MAC West
Favorite: Northern Illinois
Sleeper: Toledo

MAC East
Favorite: Temple
Sleeper: Kent State

Overall Favorite: NIU or Temple, depending on which coach manages to screw up the least.

There should be a lot of turnover in terms of top teams next year.

Btw, when is Miami going to get their stuff back together? They always seemed like the big torn for multiple seasons.

What MAC East teams are we slated to play next year?

Hopefully we'll known soon

But if I had to guess I’d say @ Buffalo and then Temple & Kent at Huskie Stadium.

but that stupid espn weeknight schedule screwed everything up.
