Defense didn't look good

It didn’t look like they had an answer to the Toledo offense there but when they got them to 3rd down I thought they might be able to hold them to a FG. Guess not.

by niuwx on Nov 1, 2011 6:19 PM CDT reply actions  

WTF

I can’t believe that. No flag??

Another kickoff returned for TD!

We were just commenting here about their cheerleaders…not that NIU’s are always a lot better.

Hey

They actually held them to 3…..small victories

by NIUDOG on Nov 1, 2011 7:33 PM CDT reply actions  

So....

Let me ask everyone a question….is the Def being a big pile of hot garbage…

A) Lack of talent
B) Poor coaching
C) Both

by NIUDOG on Nov 1, 2011 7:34 PM CDT reply actions  

Mostly talent

It’s gotten better as personnel changes have been made.

But it does not bode well when your only up 4 and you got 2 KO returns….and your def is hot puke

Offense

Is too inconsistent. Why take Lynch out. Too obvious they’re gonna run it.

Seriously

Can’t count on them to win a close one, but they managed today.

by niuwx on Nov 1, 2011 9:53 PM CDT up reply actions  

I was telling my kids the same thing. We have lost soooooo many big games in the last minute, I thoroughly expected we’d lose this one on the hook and ladder.

This was one of the best NIU wins; ever. Good job boys, for hanging in there and puling it out, especially over…over….(heeheehee) TOLEDO in the glAss Bowl.

by MiamiHuskie on Nov 1, 2011 10:06 PM CDT up reply actions  

Wow

Craziest shit I’ve ever seen.

HOLY CRAP

HELL OF A GAME!! I CAN NOT BELIEVE WHAT IVE JUST SEEN

by jcsportsfan21 on Nov 1, 2011 9:57 PM CDT reply actions  

Good win

I know our defense is/was completely non-existent but that was quite possibly the best team in the MAC and we just beat them in their own house. 3 out of the last 4, correct?

Whatever. We desperately needed that win and got it. If NIU loses that game, their shot at the MAC Championship would have been over. As it turns out, we’re still in this! And we’re in the drivers seat!!!

Life is tough, but it's tougher if you're stupid.
