BOISE, Idaho (AP) -- Northern Illinois spent the last two weeks dealing with turmoil, first losing a conference title and then its head coach.The Huskies took out whatever frustration was left on Fresno State.
Quarterback Chandler Harnish ran for two touchdowns and threw for another, and Northern Illinois made interim coach Tom Matukewicz a winner in his only game in charge with a 40-17 victory over Fresno State in the Humanitarian Bowl on Saturday night.
Northern Illinois (11-3) earned a school-record 11th victory by settling a turbulent two-week stretch that started with a loss to Miami-Ohio in the Mid-American Conference title game, then was compounded 48 hours later by the departure of coach Jerry Kill for Minnesota.
