Huskies clinch third consecutive MAC West title

For all the marbles, again

When Dave Doeren was named Northern Illinois head coach back in December of 2010, he found out pretty quickly what the Huskies' rivalry with Toledo meant to the NIU fan base.

In fact, he found out as soon as he was introduced as NIU's head coach.

"I was told the first day on campus," Doeren said. "When you have your press conference, tons of people walk up to you and congratulate you. And many of them say 'Hey beat Toledo.' So kind of right away I knew it was a big game here."
