The Northern Illinois Huskies face a tough schedule in 2017 season...and they’ll have to do it without 11 starters from last year; including a pair of former starting quarterbacks, their leading rusher, their top two receivers, and, on defense, their two leading tacklers.
NIU also faces another quarterback battle, this time between junior Ryan Graham and sophomore Daniel Santacaterina.
Sounds daunting.
But let’s not worry just yet because there is still a lot of talent on the roster. Jordan Huff, Chad Beebe, Christian Blake, Shawun Lurry, Mycial Allen, and Shane Wimann all return for their senior year.
