ESPN's video for Boise's first touchdown said "tackling optional for NIU." They never even came close to putting a hand on the running back. I'll bet the handful of NIU fans who traveled to San Diego were pleased with their money and time spent...
I made this mistake, too. I think it's because so many MAC teams played Big Ten teams in the non-conference and I got a peek at them.Sucks for me.
I gave way too much credit to the MAC in our office Bowl Pool.
42 of those yards for NIU came on their first possession. Werre actually at 49 before losing 7 and fumbling it away. Some how after that they mustered -9 yards the rest of the way.Epic.
664 to 33 in total yards.
