*** Official Northern Illinois Game Thread ***

This is the weirdest game I think I've ever watched.

I know, right?  Everything just seems....off.  Like each team is just imploding and the coaches are using it as a pre-season game to try to shake out some positions and try some new plays.

Question--can we promote Chinander to Head Coach?

Asking for a media friend from Omaha.

Yeah, and when I suggested our Sports Psychology department wasn't doing their job for the past decade or more, I got ripped up one side and down the other. 

This is the kind of s*** that Sports Psychology tries to prevent. 

We're a sport psychologist's wet dream

Whoever is calling plays on offense just loves putting this defense at a disadvantage

 

[southernoregonhusker]

I didn't think it was too bad.  He knows the pressure is coming up the middle and wide plays are working.  The execution wasn't there though.

Bench Frost for a game. Horrible playcallng.

Yet we're still rolling with the same staff that was brought in during Riley's stay. And the guy that was here during the 90s is more than willing to come back.

This west coast stuff or whatever it is is pretty bad.

He is married to his scheme....Needs to put all that experience to work and figure something out...

At this point they could make their entire career just with this team and their ineptitude.  There's a reason my bumper sticker in HS said "Men play football, intelligent men play soccer"

If we are going to discuss Keto, can we suggest that the NIU Head Coach start it STAT???

The team or the fanbase?

 

[southernoregonhusker]

Take a knee or throw the ball?

 

[huskerfan74]

100 bucks, Martinez takes a knee

I get that. Big time potential, both good and bad. If Allen makes his block, Mo might have gone the distance.  But if (and when) he doesn’t........
