Important game against NIU on Wednesday
Posted: Tue Jan 10, 2006 10:59 pm
It pretty much goes without saying that a conference game is important. But after our last outing, a blowout loss to a poor WMU team, we really need to bounce back at home and get a win. NIU is a very solid team and is probably the best team in the MAC West. I hope we come out and get a win and that we can also finally get a decent crowd in Anderson Arena, especially now that the students are back and we are playing a conference game. Our largest (ha!) crowd this season has been just 1,542.....that's just flat out sorry. Our other crowd figures were 1,212; 1,201 and 1,035. I know we aren't the best in the MAC and we have a losing record, etc., but to average under 1,300 for a MAC school two months into the season is just very poor. I know two of our games were against non D-I schools and that a few games also came over break, but I hope we can at least get a decent showing tomorrow night. But more importantly, I really hope we can get a victory.
