Thanks to our good friend Thporth for finding the following image:
I guess I could understand how people not from the Midwest could confuse UNI and NIU. After all, acronyms can be pretty puzzling.

International Bowl
South Florida (7-5) vs. Northern Illinois (7-5) (+7)
I know he wasn't that great, but it's a shame Matt Grothe doesn't get to start for USF Saturday. A season-ending injury for a senior is never a good thing, but even more so for the quarterback ...

Happy Thanksgiving!

Special Friday Pick! Game Of The Week

11:50 am: Morning! Finally, the first Saturday of college football season and...there's nothing but crappy games on at noon ET. Damn. I'll probably be rotating between Minny/Syracuse and Penn State/Akron, though I'm not thrilled with either game. The 3:30 games, however, are loaded and should be a hell of a ...
