TOLEDO - 11/7 at 6:35 on ESPN2

This week NIU (5-4, 3-2 MAC) takes on the Toledo Rockets (3-6, 1-4 MAC). There's still a small chance the Huskies can win the division and go to the MAC Championship game but they can't afford to lose another game this season. The Huskies lost eleven straight to Toledo before winning last year's game. They have never beaten the Rockets two seasons in a row.

The game is at 6:35 so the tailgate lot will open at 1:30. The general parking lots will open at 3:00. Be at Fatty’s by 1:15 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 1:15. Otherwise, see the Football Parking Map to find the Cardinal Lot.

What I think it will take for NIU to win the conference:

NIU - needs to win all three remaining games to end up 6-2

Then we need:

Central Michigan - needs to beat Western Michigan and lose to NIU and Buffalo so they end up 6-2

Western Michigan - needs to lose to Central Michigan and Akron so they end up 5-3
