Huskies celebrate another year of winning the Bronze Stalk
In a white-knuckle, back-and-forth, hold-your-breath and don’t-dare-turn-your-eyes kind of football game, it was Jordan Lynch and the No. 15 NIU Huskies who finally prevailed, winning 48-27 over Ball State. Tied heading into the fourth quarter, the NIU Huskies scored the final 21 points of the game for the Wednesday night victory at Huskie Stadium. Lynch...
For the second time this fall, one of college football’s hottest quarterbacks is coming to Huskie Stadium.

NIU ultimately prevailed, of course, going 43-19 the rest of the way....

One week after Jordan Lynch became only the second FBS player in the last decade to catch a touchdown pass, run for a TD and pass for four more scores in the same game, the red-hot quarterback is invading Tom Brady’s house.

NIU football radio announcers Bill Baker and Mark Lindo didn’t realize they were witnessing history Saturday when they began laughing about something the color commentator had said off the air. Baker revealed that Lindo had predicted the pair would see Huskie QB Jordan Lynch reel off a 50-yard run, and the 49-yard scamper they’d just...

Considering the tremendous number of yards amassed the last few years by the NIU Huskie football team, fans probably weren’t prepared what happened at Homecoming.

With four minutes remaining on the clock in The Big House – the fabled home of the University of Michigan Wolverines – the Akron Zips stand atop the scoreboard, 24-21. Can it happen?
