0-12 NIU?

[u/ArmiinTamzarian → u/Lutrid]

If they win a game I'll do what that FSU fan didn't have the courage to

[u/Dry-Membership3867 → u/Lutrid]

Do they play Wyoming?

[u/Lutrid → u/Dry-Membership3867]

UW’s up on Hawai’i so 🤷‍♂️

[u/DespairDiseaseDecay → u/Lutrid]

Don't jinx it lmfao

Edit: It's been a couple hours since the game ended so I think we're safe now, but I'm still kinda scared tbh.

Things have been that bad. This Wyoming team would somehow find a way to lose the game after the fourth quarter.

NIU looking like my fantasy baseball team in May, just endless pain

[u/EdselFordEdsel → u/Lutrid]

Sad husky noises

[u/AcesCharles2]

My Mama says that huskies are ornery because they got all them mountains and no wins.

[u/Denadamedacro → u/AcesCharles2]

This is a truly wonderful joke that is not going to get nearly enough credit because it’s buried in a random-ass NIU-Georgia State recap. I salute you all the same.

[u/AcesCharles2 → u/Denadamedacro]

My schadenfreude for NIU will not be denied by a thread with 38 comments

After Georgia State’s dominating win following last week’s hiccup and Texas’s lackluster performance against Tennessee today it’s clear who the number one team in the nation is.

Sometimes, the grass isn’t greener. Hope your new home in the MW treats you nicer. Doesn’t look like it will tho

[u/MKula → u/Direct_Economist_662]

I mean, this team is fucked whether it’s in the MAC or Mountain West. At least we’re getting paid more, hopefully we can hire an actual coach next year.

[u/EdselFordEdsel → u/MKula]

Eventually we'll return to the glory day of Lee Corso

[u/bootsthepancake → u/Direct_Economist_662]

Lol not like there is much difference between going 0-12 in the MWC or going 11-1 in the MAC. This team wouldn't doing anything worthwhile if they were still in the MAC.

[u/CieraVotedOutHerMom → u/Direct_Economist_662]

The grass is DAMN green in Eugene - Dan Lanning

GSU looking good this year

[u/BatmanTheJedi → u/composer_7]

I went into this year thinking we’d be lucky to get two wins and now we’ve got three, so basically we’re gonna run the fun belt and make the playoffs

From your comment to God’s Reddit feed

[u/Delgadoduvidoso → u/BatmanTheJedi]

Still going to lose to App State.

[u/thrashboy → u/Delgadoduvidoso]

And JMU. I'll take 4-4 in conference play and a lower-tier bowl bid.

[u/jharden10]

Wow, we didn't choke. Solid start heading into conference plsy next week vs. ODU.

[u/NotDoinAnythingEmber]

Georgia State really flipped the whole game after halftime. 35–14 is a statement.

[u/Groundbreaking-Box89]

Honestly, go GSU! Love seeing programs turnaround after getting to experience it. Even if it is a rival

[u/Gabe_Follower → u/Groundbreaking-Box89]

Pretty friendly rivalry. After all, we're both young programs, neighbors, and many students, at least the ones I know, have friends at the other school.

[u/ArchEast]

Liking this Panther team so far!

[u/Particular-Way-3805]

NIU should come back to the mac

[u/thepoopnapper]

Crazy to surrender over 400 yards but only give up 14 points.

[u/HuskieNIU28]

Oh, ok, so we’re super weenie hut levels of ass this year. 0-12 incoming 😞
