N. Ill. vs. Buffalo????

[JSLU1217]

I have to scratch my head on this one. N. Ill who has lost 2 games in a row first against Ohio St. ok i see that but 2nd against Ohio U. Ouch. Well now they play against probably one of the worst teams out there, they have one of the best backs and the line is -23 at home. Just wondering if anyone else looked at this game and wondering your thoughts.

i dont think its fair to say that UB is one of the worst teams in the MAC...they pushed Bowling Green to the max and realistically...they should of won that game....they basically lost the game because there place kicker missed a extra point in the 2nd (it was blocked) and also...UB had a drive earlier in the game where they were on the goaline..and came out with a measly 3 points..turner gill has his boys ready to play hard...although N Illinois will most likely win....i dont think it will be a wash....for the first time in there history they have a coach that has a goal for the program....the program made the jump to D-1AA without the game plan intact...however it appears that the program will be turning the corner...in addition....i think UB can match the huskies speed wise....if james starks, naaman Roosevelt play...along with qb drew willy, wr garry rice, te chad upshaw....ub will come ready to play....the support the yare getting on campus here is unreal....there will be a contingent of UB fans to make there way down to Illinois to support there bulls....i look for the huskies to squeak one out....but by no means by 20+ points....IMO....gl!!!

if you base UB on the last 7 years...then yes...they are the worst team in the MAC, if not in all NCAA....but....i just dont think they will be the worst team in the MAC this year...they are def a program on the rise....

i go to UB.......seems the team has turned the corner to me also i agree with vazman i mean they did lose to BG but should have won that game IMO.......vazman namman roosevelt went to my high school was a year behind me....(st. joes) the dude got offers from bc, cuse, but i think his academics killed him from going to those places ...
