UNI has been trying to get football games at both Illinois and Indiana, but neither wants to play us for fear of losing.

It should be noted that UNI still owes a game at Northwestern State. I wonder if that game will appear on the schedule next year?The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.Comment

After what happened to them in the Dome on their last visit, I'm not so sure they want us...Originally posted by Panthers to the Bone View Post

northwest iowa panther
Posted this on another thread. Thought I would post it here also. Has to do with SDSU and NDSU and the Gateway's interest in them.

On the subject of future UNI schedules, there was an article in the Grand Forks Herald the week after this year's UND-UNI game that said the contract contained an option for two more games, if UND makes the move to DI. UND's first season in DI will be 2008-09.
Future Sioux-UNI games possible
UND athletic director Tom Buning said the contract between the Sioux and Northern Iowa contained an option for two more games, contingent on UND becoming a Division I-AA program.
During the summer, UND announced it would elevate its athletic programs to Division I in 2008.
Buning said it's possible the remaining two games between the Sioux and Panthers would be a home-and-home series.Comment

newsflash
as of this past Sunday all IA & IAA teams are now called Division I. Please start using the new moniker...especially as Panther fans.Comment

they've always been "division I", just part of a subdivision as well.
They're still part of 2 subdivisions, only the names have changed to confuse the innocent. Now we have the Bowl Championship subdivision (which I guess includes all the schools who have almost zero chance of playing in a Bowl Championship Series bowl, due to not being in one of the few big conferences). And the Football Championship subdivision (which I guess includes all the Ivy League schools, even though they don't play for the championship, and the non-schol. teams who don't realistically have any chance of making the playoffs either).Comment

I gotta think that with McCarney leaving this will be one of our best chances ever to win against ISU in Ames.Originally posted by Panthers to the Bone View PostComment

We had a pretty good chance this past season too...
but I agree, next year ISU will have a new coach, and the team will prolly still be "rebuilding". Where as UNI, while there are a few key guys to replace, have alot of good players returning and should have a decent chance for the win. (just don't tell THEM that, or they might not come ready to play).Comment

I don't think their new coach will take the UNI game seriously.Originally posted by JayJ79 View PostComment

Wouldn't the new coach ake it more seriously since they almost lost this year?Selling a lot of old UNI stuff here: http://www.panthernation.com/showthread.php?t=65762Comment

I don't think so....he (or SHE, you never know) will have a lot to learn and will probably focus on Big 12 competition. He would probably look past an opponent from a "lower"* division.Originally posted by Rob Weiss View Post
*Disclaimer - I know UNI is not in a "lower" division.Comment

Exactly right. The only way that doesn't happen is if they get a coach that knows this state and realizes how much the UNI people want to win this game. McCarney always knew and thats a big he never lost to UNI, where another coach would have.Originally posted by Mountain Panther View PostComment
