Football finished with its worst regular season record since the team finished 2-10 in 2007 with a 31-21 victory Friday over Kent State University in Kent, Ohio.
The poor season performance from the team should force NIU to quickly make a decision on whether Head Coach Rod Carey is the best option to lead the team going forward, and if recent play is any indicator, the answer is probably no.
Carey had success in his first two seasons with the Huskies, going a combined 23-5 in 2013 and 2014, including the first 12-0 regular season in school history in 2013.
