You've heard the hype now for nearly a month, and it's finally here. Northern Illinois makes its first appearance in a BCS game tonight, taking on Florida State in the Orange Bowl in south Florida.
Throughout the month of December, people said the Huskies didn't deserve to be in the game, as the only non-AQ school to make a BCS bowl without going undefeated. Can NIU stay with Florida State tonight at Sun LIfe Stadium?
