DeKALB — Football is back as the Huskies are preparing for their season opener against the Boston College Eagles.

“This is probably the biggest game in Huskie Stadium since 2003 against [University of Maryland], for our community and university,” said Rod Carey, Head Football Coach

Carey has still not announced who will be the starting quarterback as that has been one of the main questions surrounding the team during preseason.

The Huskies are looking for the right man for the job, as the person chosen will be counted on to make smart decisions after losing some talented offense players from last year.
