Re: Attendance Ideas and Solutions

Also, back in the attendance hay-day in the late 60s and 70s WIU played in the top division of football and there was no split yet. (correct me if i am wrong) Well...um...you said to correct you if you're wrong, so.... from 1914 to 1970 (or maybe '69, not 100% sure on that) we were in "Little ...

Re: Attendance Ideas and Solutions

To GV DAD I graduated in 2011 and was at WIU for five years. During my time we weren't great but I was raised in a family that loved football. When I was in high school, I played Friday nights, referred on Saturdays, and Sundays every week. Needlessly to say, when I got to Macomb my freshman year, I...

Re: WIU at Illinois (9/8/2018)

I am very nervous with this game, not because I don't think we can beat Illinois but because we need to win. Montana will be tough next week too and being 2-1 or dropping both games to the Montana school with a FBS school win would keep us in the mix. If we lose all three of our non-conference games...

Re: WIU-Illinois question

Illinois fan blog is reporting that a few of their starters are suspended for the first few games and that their CB coach resigned too.

Re: MVFC on ESPN3/ESPN+

If we already pay for ESPN does that mean I still have to pay the extra $5 a month to watch ESPN+?

Re: Montana State Game

Has anyone thought about making the trip to Missoula on Saturday Sept 1st for the UNI vs UM game? (after our game in Bozeman of course) I know we play there next season but I think my flight next season will be to Colorado State's game.

Re: Regular Season Game in Chicago

I love the idea but it would have to be a FBS game. I don't think we could fill soliders field or wrigley up with a regional FCS team. Unless we played at the Fire's stadium or something a little smaller. I would love to come home for a WIU vs Northwestern at solider field.

WIU MARCHING BAND

I noticed this wasn't posted any where on the forum so ill leave the link. I saw them perform probably ten years ago and I am still amazed by the world class musicians they have. If I lived closer to Macomb I would definitely make it in for their performances. I would also say for any non-marching b...
