CENTRAL MICHIGAN - 11/17 AT 7:05 on ESPNU

This week NIU (5-5, 3-3 MAC) takes on the Central Michigan Chippewas (7-3, 6-0 MAC). The chances for a conference championship are long gone. Now we have to focus on finishing over .500. The Huskies have finished over .500 for six straight years and they'll have to win their last two games to do it this year. It's also Senior Night so we should be in the stadium early to show our appreciation for Wolfe and Free. This senior class currently has a 31-15 record, played for the conference championship and won the Silicon Valley Bowl game.

The game is at 7:05 so the tailgate lot will open at 2:00. The general parking lots will open at 3:30. Be at Fatty’s by 1:45 if you're parking in the tailgate area. Otherwise, park in the general lots after 3:00 and find us in the Cardinal lot.

WEATHER: DeKalb Weather

TAILGATING: Meet at Fatty's by 1:45. Otherwise, see the Football Parking Map to find the Cardinal Lot.
