NIU Football

DeKALB, Ill. - The Northern Illinois University Huskies wrapped up 2014 spring football practices Saturday at Huskie Stadium with a modified version of the "Huskie Bowl" won by the Cardinal Team made up of the entire NIU defense.

Points were awarded for one-one-one drills, a field goal competition and third-down conversions in seven-on-seven situations before the offense and defense squared off in a non-tackling scrimmage. Following all of the drills, field goals and seven-on-seven plays, the Cardinal (Defense) led the Black (Offense) just 33-30. The scrimmage session was all defense, though, as the Cardinal Team earned 36 points for forcing three-and-outs and turnovers, and stopping the offense before it reached midfield.

In 13 drives, the Huskie offense was able to generate one touchdown as junior quarterback Matt McIntosh hit Juwan Brescacin on a 75-yard touchdown pass. The defense negated that score with a 38-yard interception return for a touchdown by linebacker Ladell Fleming off a McIntosh pass on the scrimmage's first drive.

NIU Head Coach Rod Carey said he saw a lot to like from the Huskie defense, which was playing a lot of young players.

"Defensively there were a number of guys that impressed me, it was good to see," Carey said. "[We had] a bunch of young guys running around out there like William Lee inside, who impressed. Perez Ford and Austin Smaha played well today. At linebacker, I noticed Cody (Hazelett), Jamaal (Payton), Sean Folliard, Boomer (Mays). Marlon (Moore) did a great job at safety."

The Brescacin touchdown was one of just two times that the NIU offense crossed midfield during the scrimmage as the defense scored at least two points on 11 drives during the scrimmage.

The Huskies' three candidates to replace Heisman Trophy finalist Jordan Lynch at quarterback - McIntosh, Drew Hare and Anthony Maddie - split reps throughout the spring and again during the scrimmage periods on Saturday. All three have had better days this spring, according to Carey.

NIU opens up the season on August 28th at home against Presbyterian College.
