I just turned it on....what the heck? I thought we had a chance.

I have to say the announcers are doing a fantastic job trying to keep it interesting.....really top notch work under very difficult conditions.

 
Stop passing the damn ball, set up in a power formation and run it down their throats. They're smaller, we'll lean on them, they'll get tired and get the hell out of here with a win.

 
Another stupid penalty....another historical trait of MR teams.  Maybe instead of a hug when a player does that they run the stadium stairs..maybe they would learn

They are pulling no punches pointing out the failings of this staff...

BTW, it's kinda funny how the defense is finally showing up, and our offense has gone into a shell. 

Also, what conference are these officials from? NIU is one of the most penalized teams in CFB, but they're relatively clean today...

I can't remember since Osborne an NU team that could consistently play both sides of the ball well at the same time.

To this point:

Called pass plays: 16/28, 57%, 3 sacks, 133 net yards, 4.3 ypp, 2 pick sixes

Called running plays: 15 rushes, 70 yards, 4.6 ypp

So we're calling 65% passing plays despite the rushing game working better and not scoring for the other team.

We'll see what we do from here.

 
Gimmie a draw.  OLine ain't getting a push.  NIU dline knowing they can get up field with ease. Use those things against them
