Only 2 back-up RBs out for NIU. They rely on the pass, not the run anyway... These guys have been out for weeks.

Settle missed the last four games with an undisclosed injury and is downgraded to doubtful to play Friday vs. Kent State. The junior backup was second on the team with 453 rushing yards and five TDs prior to injury.
Womble was charged for a DUI recently and is now on indefinitely suspension. The senior was the opening game starter but that was his only start. He has eight total carries on the year for 12 yards and a TD.
