Not going to write it out here but 2024 football schedule is posted online.

Does anyone remember the days when a MAC game was an assumed win other than maybe Toledo? Now I look at the schedule and never assume a thing. Overall, schedule looks like usual: two easy non conference, two extremely tough non conference…and then the MAC

I do. And before that, I remember when they were an assumed loss.

So...Maybe I don't understand the question.

I think it is the best balanced schedule we have had in many years. Plus, five Saturday home games. I like it a lot.

I like that they get the week off after Notre Dame so they can make adjustments before their first conference game vs. Buffalo. We should know a lot about this team after the first two games.

+1. I do think this is the season that will tell us if TH is the coach of the future for NIU or we are just waiting till his contract expires. I hope he proves everyone wrong.

I’d expect these to be the 5 home Saturday game times:

WIU 6pm

BUFF,UMASS,TOLEDO 2:30pm

CMU 11AM…maybe 1 or 1:30pm?

Toledo for Homecoming! On a Saturday.
