Where do these NUIC til I die guys come from every year? Y'all make it seem like a cult to outsiders bro.
Well they have had a team in the 1A or 2A title game in all but I think 4 years since 2000. It likely would have been more if classes weren't split north/south forcing the conference teams to beat up on each other early in the playoffs.

What did the guy who say to me? The one that said for the 13,000th time that Wed/Sat playoff setup would be best...

...thanks captain obvious! 😁

Most teams in conferences like that despise each other... these guys just all seem like go get their rubber duckies from the 7Brew together and talk about how awesome the NUIC is... just always found it kind of odd. Nothing that big to make of here...

Haters hate….

One day there will be another private built like the 2024 Althoff that whoops the NUIC you can rally behind.
Hate implies feeling... I feel nothing when I think about the NUIC.

But you right, it was pretty comical seeing Althoff take Lena to the proverbial wood shed now that you mention it. Especially after Lena had such a tough, hard fought NUIC rematch (44-14) in the 2nd round against Stockton. 🥴

The last 10 NUIC rematches in the playoffs...

Stockton 26-0 Galena (26) - 2025 1st Round
Lena 48-22 Forreston (26) - 2025 1st Round
Lena 30-16 Stockton (14) - 2025 SF
Lena 44-14 Stockton (30) - 2024 2nd Round
Morrison 34-12 Fulton (22) - 2023 1st Round
Lena 46-14 Forreston (32) - 2023 2nd Round
Lena 52-14 Fulton (38) - 2022 QF
Lena 38-16 Forreston (22) - 2022 SF
Lena 38-8 Forreston (30) - 2021 2nd Round
Lena 54-28 Fulton (26) - 2021 QF

Like we get it, your teams go deep... but mostly just Lena... they are not, however, playing competitive games against each other very often at all when they meet in the playoffs. This is why I was confused why you NUIC guys act so buddy buddy... or do the rest of you enjoy simping for Lena at every turn to help warrant your lack of success aginst them in the postseason?

I’m not an NUIC guy 😂. Tried telling you that but you believe I am because I posted NUIC isn’t down but Lena is.

I’d love nothing more than to see Heyworth, Fisher or Clifton Central make it to the big game instead of a NUIC team.

Do I think that will happen…probably not.
