38 Rockets
32 Huskies
Hope I'm wrong. Think we show up due to Rival Game, but Huskies have to score a lot, A LOT. Our D will have their hands full.
Go Huskies, bet Toledo.

Yet Toledo is 6-3 and ranked #65 by CNSS 130 vs NIU 3-6 #114?
Is it because this is a major rivalry or Am I missing something?
My heart hopes that NIU wins. My head tells me that Toledo will cover the spread and win by >3.
Toledo’s team shouldn’t be judged by its 4-1 start. Different team. Had our starting QB
Toledo after the BG loss is how they should be judged...2-2
Prediction: Toledo 27-21. Northern has a chance to win at the end but Toledo’s defense comes through as they have several times this season...

RE: OFFICIAL NIU-Toledo Prediction THREAD
Regrettably we will likely lose this game. I am not doubting Thomas, I just think that we are a beat up football team and it will be tough to overcome our injuries. I do hope that the game is competitive and that will depend on whether or not our O and D lines get pushed around as they were last game. I suspect that we lose by more than ten points.
That said, I will watch the game and hope for a Huskie victory. I have followed the team through ups and downs for 48 years so I am not about to stop doing so.

RE: OFFICIAL NIU-Toledo Prediction THREAD
48 years? I got 47. You could slow down a bit and wait for some of us to catch up. Anyway ...
I have said this several times this season, and will admit to be slightly loony about it ... but ... I would like to see NIU try a backfield of Bowers at QB, Childers at option/RB, and Harbison at RB. Bowers takes the snap and then ?? ... Also like to see the two TEs, Crawford and Brinkman in there, plus plus they can also block, and Ritchie and ?? at WRs. Crazy, right?

Toledo only favored by 2 1/2 over NIU, I expected worse.
Can't see NIU pulling this off, just hope we keep it competitive and try some new plays, anything to get the offense fired up.

PJFleck82 was very negative in the 4th quarter! LOL, but everyone was with good reason. Glad he was correct in his pick.
