Hey guys, been a long time since I've posted, just wanted to swing by and wish you guys good luck going forward in the OVC.  We had some great games in the past and hope you have great success in the future.

maybe we will meet again some day in the playoffs!
 
 

This is all pretty much correct. Yes, North Dakota is much smaller population-wise than Illinois, but they've pretty much cornered the college football market in ND and northeastern Minnesota.
Imagine how much more support/interest we'd get if nearly every WIU football game was aired live ...

Another interesting chart from the WIU math major. Six games left for all conference teams. How many wins are each team likely to get

Right, although they're more into Summit League sports than MVFC Football.
