2024 predictions

I will be flabbergasted if Evans-Jenkins doesn't start at guard. I'm an absolute idiot but I thought he and Teddy developed some real good chemistry toward the end of the year so I guess I'd have Teddy, JEJ, Scott, Mazucca, Benhart going left to right. Maybe I missed that Mazzucca is a LG though
He played RG at Florida
 
Not a bad chart. I'd probably put the NAIA guy at 3rd string QB tho.

I'd add a lot of "or" at the RB spot.

Flip Knaak and Gottula positions.

Justin Evans starts over Luto.

Am I crazy to think Buford starts at nickel over Hartzog? The Wright addition is a huge benefit back there.
I'll be honest, I made this a few weeks ago just for shits and giggles. I remembered to add Wright at CB, but forgot to add the QB.

I wouldn't be shocked with Evans over Luto at all, but I've been pumping the Luto hype train since we signed him. I'm hoping for a big jump for him. It's nice to finally have some quality depth on the OL.

I know people love to shit on Hartzog right now, but I really like him at the nickel. Buford could definitely take the spot from him, but I think Hartzog finds his home in that position.

Really good projection. Gotta imagine that Barney will be involved in the return game in some capacity.
 
UTEP - Win 69-0
Colorado - Win 420-0
Northern Cockeye - Win 69-0
Illinois - Win 69-0
@ Purdue - Win 69-0
Rutgers - Win 69-0
@ Indiana - Win 69-0
@ Ohio State - Win 69-0
UCLA - Win 69-0
@ USC - Win 69-0
Wisconsin - Win 69-0
@ Cockeye - Win 420-0
In the 69-0 games is that 11 tds and 8 missed extra points?
 
9 TDs & 3 safeties a game. Very manageable.

UTEP - Win 42-10
Colorado - Win 34-24. Buffs hit some deep balls but we control the LOS
Northern Cockeye - Win 49-6
Illinois - Win 31 - 17
@ Purdue - Win 28 - 14
Rutgers - Loss 24-27. Let down game.
@ Indiana - Win 28-24. Have to shake off the previous weeks loss
@ Ohio State - Loss 41 - 34. Raiola gives them a scare like Martinez's freshman year
UCLA - Win - 34-17
@ USC - Loss - 38-21 Mistakes on the road
Wisconsin - Loss - 31-27 Let down after USC loss
@ Cockeye - Win - 27-0. Fuck those clowns

8-4. Going to a decent bowl game.
 
Utep - Big W
Colorado - L -The Simulation™ will fuck us
NIU - W
Fat Burts - W
Purdoodoo - W
Buttgers - L
Indiana - W
THEosu - L -40 point loss best case
UCLA - W
USC - L -LR has 2 weeks to prep, we fugged
Cheese Fags- L -Always lose to them
Cockeye - L -The Simulation™ hates us

6-6, at least we bowling.

Realistically though we will probably drop one to IU, fat Burt, or purdookie. Then Cockeye will send us home at 5-7 on a last second field goal.

8-4 regular season.
1 loss in a letdown game in the first 7, mistakes by a true Freshman QB cost us a game
loss to tOSU
loss to USC at their place
loss to Wisconsin or Cockeye

QB - Raiola, Gramstad, Haarberg
If Raiola misses 1-4 games, I wouldn't be surprised to see Kaelin start, I think he is 2nd best, but will definitely RS

RB - E Johnson, Ervin, R Johnson, Dowdell
Passing situations R Johnson
4 minute offense Ervin and Dowdell

WR - Banks
WR - Neyor
In the rotation Lloyd, Garcia-Castaneda, Coleman as deep threats
also in the rotation Bullock, Bonner, Barney

TE1 - Fidone, Nelson
TE2 - Boerkircher, Lindenmeyer

LT - Prochazka, Corcoran, Gottula
LG - Evans, Corcoran
C - Scott, Evans, Sledge
RG - Mazzccua, Lutovsky
RT - Benhart, Corcoran, Knaak

NT - Hutmacher, Lefotu
DT - Robinson, Jeudy, Van Popel, Jackson
DE - Butler, Lenhardt, Williams, Wallin

Jack - Sherman, Umanmielen, Noonan

LB - Bullock, Thompson, Rogers
LB - Wright, Gbayor, Shavers
A bit of a mix and match dependent on what White is doing, could be many variations of DL and LB dependent on the opponent and White's gameplan

ROV - Gifford
S - Singleton, Bretz
S - Buford, Hartzog

CB - T Hill, Charles
CB -B Hill, Hartzog, Wright, Bootle
Need some young guys to step up, but besides Bootle and Charles I have no idea who. I think Hartzog will start at CB until B Hill is back.

Is Hoiberg the player to be named later in the Vedral/Banks trade with the basketball team?
 
UTEP - WIN (hype through the roof)

Colorado - Loss (cucked again)

Northern Cockeye - WIN (crawling out of the abyss)

Illinois - WIN (Illinois is 💩)

@ Purdue - WIN (Purdue is 💩)

Rutgers - WIN (Rutgers might actually be pretty good but there is no world where I will ever predict Nebraska to lose to Rutgers)

@ Indiana - WIN (5 wins in a row...are we back?)

@ Ohio State - Loss (by 28+)

UCLA - WIN (UCLA will be a bottom 3 team in the conference)

@ USC - WIN (welcome to the show)

Wisconsin - WIN (this one will feel so good and @Ducksker (aka Kitty) will be in shambles)

@ Cockeye - Loss (night game at Kinnick, we're gonna get our Fannies waxxed)

9-3 baby
Get porked by Tennessee in the Citrus Bowl
That's a painful 9-3
