Early in the game, I know Western Michigan is gonna blow the Mac tonight. I can feel it. It’s already seven to nothing and northern Illinois has the ball and scoring position after the interception fire coach Taylor.

Pathetic offense so far…dumb play calling like they’re afraid to lose…and run backwards after a first down pass??? Wow..

Still early, but so far they are getting completely outplayed and out coached. This team looks unprepared.
