Tonight: N.Illinois v #20 Toledo ESPN2 8pm

The NIU HC was a hot ticket to move into a P5 job before season started.
Stock went down some (5-3 so far this year), but rising again and if his Huskies win tonight ,
Carey might be back on the top of hot list again when talking about mid major HCs and P5 jobs
 
N.Illinois' losses are a 7 point loss at Ohio St , a 3 point loss at Boston College, and a bad 10 point loss at CMU.

I'm interested to see both teams, their offenses and how they are coached .
 
17-10 Toledo up. Pretty entertaining game. N Ill hit a bomb on a 3rd and 35 ! Toledo has a very nice Stadium.
 
I have money on Toledo -6.5 and these guys give up a 3rd and 40 conversions lol.
 
Both of those coaches will more than likely be coaching somewhere else next season.
 
When the N Ill starting QB went out I thought this game would be over, but it's a dogfight, N Ill WR with a crazy acrobatic catch , 2 pt conversion fails. Toledo up 27-25, still 9:30 left in game.
 
HOLY TOLEDO! NIU scores go ahead TD with under 2 minutes to play, then intercepts Toledo pass to seal victory. NIU played last qtr + with 2nd string QB
 
Those alternate channels are only used for football. I'm pretty sure their goal is to monetize BTN2 Plus by putting a lot of baseball, soccer, and other Olympic sports on there.
Also, paying $9.95 for a month for the service will be the only way to watch a bunch of non-conference RU basketball games once again.

I love my Maction! NIU is a good team, but they're really well coached. And it's been for more than a while now that they've been good. Not just a Senior-led Cinderella, but that program's the real deal. A lot of good ball being played in the MAC recently. Fun to watch, too. Another one tonight, Ohio @ Bowling Green and the BGSU high-octane offense at work!
