ROCKFORD, Ill. (WTVO/WQRF) — NIU’s opening football game last Saturday against Western Illinois was one Huskies’ quarterback Ethan Hampton never forget. He topped all the great NIU quarterbacks in history when it comes to passing efficiency.

His 310.3 mark is the best ever eclipsing the likes of Jordan Lynch, Chandler Harnish and even College Football Hall of Famer George Bork. In the 54-15 win, Hampton completed 18 of his 20 passes. Five of those completions went for touchdowns. That left Hampton with an ESPN QBR of 98.1. That ranks Hampton third in the nation.

Also, Hampton’s 90% completion percentage ranks second in the nation for FBS.

Next up this Saturday, a game at Notre Dame.
