  NIU v. Arizona Recap with JJ Lippe (2026)

  Sep 20, 20261 hour

  NIU fell to 0-3 on Saturday night after falling to Arizona in Tucson. The guys are joined by former NIU offensive lineman JJ Lippe (2019-2024) to talk about the game. *We apologize for a technical issue on Jay's audio for this episode. If listening on headphones it may only play on one side and be a little quieter than the other two guys. JJ earned First Team All-MAC honors in 2024 and was apart of the famous offensive line that helped lead the Huskies victory over Notre Dame in South Bend in 2024. JJ played 52 games over the span of his college career, starting 47 at various spots along the offensive line.
