POLL Post-OSU record predictions

What will be our final record be at the end of the regular season?

I have a feeling once they get bowl eligible and get that monkey off their back, they'll play loose and have fun. But yeah, doing blow off a hookers ass is quite the rush.

I went 6-6 because I don’t trust the offense at all. Special teams and game management are also still shaky. I could see 7-5 with a win over Wisconsin or Cockeye even though Wisconsin seems to be getting better every week. The only reason I give us a shot against Wisconsin is because the game is at home. I don’t think our dbs will hold up against USC even though they are definitely beatable.

I almost went 7-5.

We could absolutely beat Cockeye, I'd put that at about 46% chance. Wiscy will buttfuck and pink sock us. Hopefully they don't make us eat the turdworm. USC is winnable because they are a shitshow and have lost a lot of confidence, but they are talented enough that they could go balls-deep in our bootyhutt in their sleep.
 
UCLAbia is the easiest win, especially being at home. But they put up 500 yards last week in a win at Buttgers so we still need to come ready to play. If we lose this game, finishing 0-6 and missing a bowl for the 8th consecutive year probably becomes more likely than not. FPI: 63%

USC I think is the second easiest. Traveling that far will be tough but like us they have regressed as the season has gone on. FPI: 14% - Tough to feel confident about a win but I think 14% is way low

Wisconsin is at home but they are getting better every week. I was looking forward to dunking on @Ducksker (aka Kitty) but I think he'll be dunking on us again. FPI: 37%

Winning in Kinnick at night is going to be tough. Their defense is solid and they've put up 40 points in 2 of their last 3. We have yet to put up 30 in a conference game. I think this is the toughest remaining game. FPI: 27%

FPI would have us finishing with 1.4 wins and 2.6 losses
So likely 6-6 or 7-5

Post the games you think we'll win and discuss.
Debated between 7-5 and 8-4; if we play like we did today we can definitely win out. I’m talking the way our ST and D played, along with the running from the O. However it’s more likely that we lose 2 more to go 7-5 IMO.
 
UCLAbia a toss up and the rest are losses IMO. Haven’t seen anything from this team or coaching staff that gives me confidence they can finish games against equal competition.
 
NGL.....I would just be happy with the bowl game. More pressure off the players and coaches. More would be great, but the minimum goal is bowl game. Especially since our schedule got much harder then it was before the beginning of the year.
