What’s Going To Happen
All of a sudden, Northern Illinois is a potential factor.
If it can win out against Eastern Michigan this week and Western Michigan next week, the MAC West becomes a hot, jumbled mess. More likely for the Huskies is the hope to go bowling with two more victories.
The stunning win over Toledo last week saved the season. The running game worked, hitting the 200-yard mark for the second time in three games – and just the second time all year. When NIU runs for 160 yards or more, it’s 3-0.
Eastern Michigan’s run defense is a disaster.
It stopped Akron to a dead stop in last week’s win, but a day without sunshine would hold the Zips to under 75 rushing yards. The Eagle defensive front has been pushed around too easily, and it’s going to have big problems on the road against a Huskie team with a renewed purpose.
EMU has to win one of its final two games to be bowl eligible – the regular season finale is at home next week against Kent State.
NIU will hold the ball for close to 40 minutes as it rumbles its way into a showdown with WMU.
