I'm guessing it'll be a game around 38-10. NIU is going to want to control the ball and run the clock down to try and keep it close, and they've got a decent RB. But we're just too big, too fast, and our secondary is good enough vs a g5 team to basically allow the rest of the D to crash to stop the run.
It'll be a close game in the 1st half, maybe being like 17-10 or something but second half will clean up.

They're going to try to run the clock out, this isn't a Navy triple option though. They run a regular spread with some pistol sprinkled in. I don't see them having success against our front 6/7.

A tad surprised we are running Leonard so much when we have two elite backs. But I guess I’m no OC.

I love the way he called that drive. Get the big guy moving, don’t rely on his arm too much. If it’s not there, tuck it and run.
