NIU’s Homecoming wins outdo Homecoming losses

By Markos Moulitsas

Since the 1903 Homecoming game NIU has compiled a 50-25-10 record (if you count those early games against NIU alumni, which kind of seems like a scam). At Huskie stadium the record for Homecoming games currently lies at 6-10-2.

Following are the results of every NIU Homecoming game since 1903, for those of you who may have ever wondered how we did in say, 1947 or 1953 (we won and lost those games, respectively).
