We asked Hustle Belt writer David Drury 5 questions about his team and the upcoming Poinsettia Bowl. We also agreed to a blog bet (provided the managers of Hustle Belt approve), where the winning team's writer gets to post an article on the loser's blog. So with no further ado, I give you the last blog bet of 2015:
1. What were your expectations for NIU coming into this season? Did your team meet or exceed them?
NIU was one of just two teams to win 11+ games the past five years (Oregon being the other), and with a solid group of players returning, expectations were high but a little lower than in the past.
