T1B

Since no one has started this thread.....I thought I would.

AppSt is still eligible for the NC.

Here is hoping ASU doesnt win the NC and Michigan wins the Big Ten

That's a shame...

I still think Michigan will win the Big-10. In fact, I bet they go 8-0. That start was a fluke. They're far too good to be kept down. Too much talent in a conference thats not so great.

I think they'll drop at least one game in-conference before The Game, potentially versus Wisky or MSU. I predict a 1990-esque season in which three to four teams will finish atop the Big Ten standings, each with a loss or two.

If you're right about 1990, I hope the team that went to the Rose Bowl that year ends up there again this year!!

Nice. Yeah IIRC Iowa, MSU, UM & Illinois all shared the title with two losses each. Iowa beat the three others head-to-head but lost to tOSU & Minnie. Still went to Pasadena.

Sorry Jon, but this year I think UM, Wisky, tOSU and one other team will all finish with two losses. Maybe PSU. Maybe Purdue.

My prediction for the Big-10....

1.Michigan
2.Ohio State
3.Penn State
4.Purdue
5.Wisconsin
6.Iowa
7.Michigan State
8.Illinois
9.Indiana
10.Northwestern
11.Minnesota

I like UM to go 8-0 and Ohio State to go 6-2. Penn State, Purdue and Wisconsin probably 5-3. Iowa 4-4. Everyone else with a losing record.

Wisconsin 5th? Iowa ahead of Michigan State?

Yeah, I’ll have some of what you’re smoking.

Honestly, I wouldn't be shocked to see the Big Ten finish that way. Of course, I'd predict it a little differently.

The only thing that would shock me from the Big Ten this year would be if Minny or N'western finishied near the top. That's about it.

are you fucking high? No way Illinois isn't in top 5 in the conference.

they are a young team who's getting better weekly. benn is a major game breaker. Juice is their only weakness. He doesnt turn the ball over, Nois take top 5 easy. mendenhall is a underrated back who can play. If juice turns it over, they could finish 6th-7th.

Iowa over illinois, we'll see when visit Iowa, but losing to Iowa would be a bad loss for anyone this year, they fuckin blow. ISU might be one of worst teams in the country. They will get dry fucked, corn holed, and put to bed when they visit Columbia.

^^ Well, the Illini's schedule certainly helps. They don't have to play Michigan State or Purdue. And they get Wisconsin, Penn State & Michigan all at home. I still think they lose all three of those and probably won't fare much better after leaving Columbus. I think they'll be able to compete in those games though.

Can they win in Iowa City? I dunno. But as of now, I count at least four conference losses. Don't think that'll get 'em into the top five of the B10.
