Game 31- Northern Illinois

[clarkwgriswold]

The 2025-26 season comes to a close Friday night as Northern Illinois comes into the JAR for senior night for a 6:00 contest.   Make sure to get there to honor this outstanding group of seniors who have given us so many great Zips memories.  

 

The Huskies are 9-19 going into its game against Brimfield tonight.

Yes, lost one somewhere and no one figured it out until now!

Let's get the excitement building for this very (not at all) meaningful game! In all seriousness though, looking forward to the senior day ceremony as we have a great class playing their last game at the JAR.

The seniors are going to be overshadowed by the celebration of this being our last ever conference game vs. NIU!

Let's vote off WMU next.

I'd rather CMU and EMU go ahead of WMU, but I will gladly go the efficiency route and vote to exile all Directional Michigans. Banish them all to the Horizon League.

For me it's because basketball is clearly the distant 3rd sport behind both football and hockey. WMU I don't see investing in both basketball and hockey given the overlapping seasons. CMU and EMU basketball is still the #2 sport. They just aren't good. CMU might be on the up as their new coach is at least showing progress.

 

I won't dispute banishing all 3.

I expect a Conner Groce sighting tomorrow. I'll settle for nothing less.
