Purple Nerds - L
Butthole Dakota - W
Fighting Heltons - W
Fighting Booger Shugas - L
Basketball School - W
Buttgers - W
Purdoodoo - L
Fat Berts. L after bye

Pickle Smoochers Cockeye - L

4-8, possibly 5-7 if beat the fat Berts or purple nerds.

Real Deano has 8-4 as of a few minutes. Obviously a few Toss ups in there. He has a W to Cockeyes and a L to Purdue. Ls to Mich, OU, WISKY as well. Not sure I’m cool with that one to Purdue but those Ls to Purdue and Wisky better be tooth and nail to the last minute at this point. I’d like to see OU a little closer then last year and Michigan be the same with a little less of an absolute castration and I can live with that. It won’t take much to get on the Time to move on train as I’m already on the fuck it, what else bad can happen at this point train

He did a very chalk prediction iyam.

I felt that he essentially is assuming we don’t have the same holy shit bad breaks 2 straight years

NW - L
Team needs time to gel. Traveling abroad does not help. Miscommunication will cause turnovers and NW runs clock and makes us beat ourselves at the end. Oline will show how bad they are. Many will jump on the fire frost bandwagon.

North Dakota - W
Hopefully their head is in the game and they aren’t jet lagged from the travel. Game could be close at half and I expect Neb to pull away late in the 3rd

GA Southern - W
Again, close at half and hopefully pull away in the second half.

Oklahoma - L
Thompson has some history and maybe helps keep it close. He will be running for his life most of the game.

Indiana - L
Team is beat down after the Oklahoma game. Frost is outcoached once again.

Rutgers - W
Close game. We make the typical mistakes that keep them in the game. Special teams wins it for us.

Purdue - W
Another close game that could go either way. I’ll give us the edge because Frost knows he needs to win out to keep his job.

Illinois - W
Team starts gaining some momentum and gets the W.

Minnesota - L
And now comes the fall. Fleck rubs his nuts all over Frost again.

Michigan - L
Michigan is undefeated at this point and ranked in the top 5. We get steamrolled. Injuries start piling up. Oline is half walk-ons and Thompson is running for his life again. Might see Chubba here.

Wisconsin - L
We start out playing them close. We turn the ball over a few times early in the third and they start running it down our throats. Frost knows he’s pretty much gone.

Cockeye - L
The final nail in the Frost coffin. There’s talk he could keep us job if he wins, but he will shit the bed as all his teams here have done. Team has nothing to play and our descent players already have their eyes set on transferring and not getting hurt.

5-7

I can see this happening

On the other side you’re asking a group of new coaches on the offensive side to get things clicking fast, and you are also banking on a lot of transfers working out in positions of need. That’s a lot to get right. I doubt it all comes together myself.

100%. We all know the situation ahead. I think for the first time since Frost was hired, I genuinely just want to enjoy the season being here instead of living and dying by each play wondering if that’s the end of his career or not. Feel like I did that a lot last year and it wasn’t as fun

Thank you as this is my prediction and saved me from typing it all out.

This. I’m just trying to enjoy a football season. I’ve mentally accepted Scott is one of the worst coaches we have ever had.

I’m just hoping we win games we should talent wise and not get drummed. If we lose more than 5 games we need to move on at this point. Our schedule is really easy. I did a little research on each team last week while traveling.

Every team is in a weird place other than Michigan.

If Frost isn't beating beefy Bart to become bowl eligible

Michigan is still replacing both coordinators. I do think they found an identity as a team and have a nasty OL.

This is really the inverse of last year's schedule. Like if I could trust us to not shit the bed I could see 9/10 wins.

I remember my thoughts a few weeks before Frost get hired, and I remember my thoughts when he became official, and up to today it hasn’t gone well. Could be his last 6-12 games and quite honestly our last legit connection to the time we all love about our program. Just gonna enjoy it and if I spend a little extra money on OU tickets than I should, fuck it

 

[Ripping Lips]

Bump… just wanted to see how everyone’s predictions panned out today

 

[Cookiemonster]

Welp. I would like to change my prediction to 3 wins. I underestimated how badly Scott frost as a coach can fuck everything up.

 

[Ripping Lips]

So, only @slattimer @NeAz and myself are batting 1.00 and picked us to lose to the purple nerds today. This is going to be a long season.
