[chicolby]

Vegas has released regular season win totals for all NCAA football teams. Nebraska and Iowa are both set at 8.5 wins, behind Michigan at 10 and Ohio State at 9.5.

Note: win totals do not include conference championship games nor bowl games.

I'm thinking right at 8 regular season wins.

Oregon - Iowa - Wisconsin - OSU - NW

have to win 2 of these games without any other hiccups to get to 9 wins (4 of those 5 games are on the road)

I went under.....I think 8-4 or 7-5......if everything goes their way 10-2 is the limit.

I am thinking we can beat Northwestern and we can beat Iowa. We are not beating tOSU, and Oregon and Wisconsin I would say are toss-ups. I am thinking 8-4 is a pretty low bar, but that we can easily hit it. It's the safe bet. I sincerely think we'll be 9-3 or 10-2 this year if we don't have any major hiccups. Our schedule just isn't that bad, and really only two teams on that schedule are hands down better than us (and Oregon is debatable).

I agree though, even if EVERYTHING goes our way, there is at least 1 guaranteed loss on there (tOSU is just in an altogether different class right now) and I bet we lose to either Oregon or Wisconsin because we're just not that dominant yet.

10-2 or better. Book it.

7-5 and a bowl win gets fans excited for the next year

7-5 and a bowl win gets fans excited for the next year

How sad is that? If it comes down to NU beating some other lame *** team that finished with a 4-4 conference record and if our fans start freaking out about how "next year" will be great...well...Ugggg!

I'm getting real tired of some people around here not understanding that Mike Riley is just a nicer Nick Saban. Once some posters get off vacation, everything is gonna get straightened out right quick.

I've got 9 wins by the way. Less than that with this schedule is no good.

10-2 or better. Book it.

I'm getting on this train. I think all games are winnable. The huge upset would be OSU, but we have pulled one out on them before . We have the talent and motivation to allow ourselves too win; we are due a turnover plus game.
