POLL Win total prediction - regular season

[That SOB Van Owen]

I will continue to vote for 5-7 until I’m proven otherwise.

Bump

 

[Huskersballz]

I don’t see more than 5 wins

 

[HerbRedman]

Illinois will finish with a better record than us. They're going 8-4 vs this schedule.




I'm a lot less confident in Nebraska going 8-4. I think we can do 7-5. But Illinois is a better team than we are, I did not have that on my preseason racing form.

@Jim14510 you picked 8 wins? On TnD you said 10. Where you at man?

The real # is 8. There was a healthy dose of sarcasm in that 10 win pick.

 

[Kaladin]

I still think we win at least 9

 

[Papa...Football]

You know it looks bleak when @Kaladin comes off his usual 10-2

I think both Nebraska and Illinois will finish 8-4. They will be ahead of us in the standing due to head to head, but we will get the better bowl bid.

Where are the five wins?

 

[Kaladin]

Where are the five wins?

Purdue
Rutgers
Indiana
UCLA
Wisconsin
Cockeye

That’s six wins, puts us at 9-3

 

[Mavsker]

Purdue
Rutgers
Indiana
UCLA
Wisconsin
Cockeye

That’s six wins, puts us at 9-3

Purdue: 80% chance of victory
Rutgers: 60%
Indiana: 40%
UCLA: 75%
Wisconsin: 70%
Cockeye: 50%

The odds of us winning all 6 of those = 1 in 20

You're being very generous with some of those percentages. Purdoodoo should be the only one 50% or above

I don't know about better but better coached. Like I said the only games I have confidence in winning is Purdue and possibly UCLA.

UCLA played LSU tough. Bruins will fuck our asses bloody.

Our defense and special teams continue down the route they're headed everyone will fuck our ass bloody. Our secondary looked worse than some of the secondaries in my 3rd grade sons league.

Yeah those were my percentages before the Illinois game. Even giving that huge benefit of the doubt it's unlikely we're winning 9 games. If this year's defense can become last year's defense, 9 wins is still on the table. If not, those who picked 6-6 have got to like where they're sitting

We ain't getting 3 more wins.
