It looks like those numbers don't include Illinois State since they're an FCS team. Which is fair, but NIU's run defense is considered a strength from what I've heard. Haven't allowed a 100 yard rusher in a long time, last year they were 11th in rush yards per game allowed and 2ns in YPC allowed. New team this year and they probably won't be that stingy, but I don't think looking at their rankings based on one game against Utah is an accurate look at their run D. Quote Link to comment

Didn't realize those were only from 1 game. Probably correct in that it doesn't really say much. They are probably pretty stout like you say. Quote Link to comment
