Wyoming- W

Southern Miss- W

UCLA- L (out coached)

South Dakota St- W

Illinois- W

Purdue- W

Minnesota- W

Northwestern- W/L

Michigan- W/L

Mich State- W/L

Penn State- W/L

Iowa- W

B1G CC vs tOSU L

Bowl against a top SEC team- L

Anywhere from what 7-10 wins? That number will depend in my eyes on if we can snag major JUCOs on the OL and DL

Yes, that is what we should expect after looking at the last 5 years. I suppose most programs would be happy with that. Winning 9 + games a year isn't bad, but we really do look like a second tier big 10 team now. How far we have fallen.

MSU and PSU will lose a ton of impact players next year.

12-0, no reason to expect otherwise

12-0, no reason to expect otherwise

I can think of many reasons....like coaches and talent...we have solid skill players terrible line play. UCLA will bring back plenty and could easily be a PAC12 Champion. Michigan will be improved and at their house. A lot can happen but looking at what we have and others have 12-0 isn't realistic. Hope I am wrong

12-0, no reason to expect otherwise

No reason? Really? How about Pelini has managed to lose 4 games every season? How about the defense has gotten progressively worse and will lose most of the guys who even made plays this year?

When I saw this thread the first thing that came to mind......

“What’s that? Ah — Playoffs? Don’t talk about — playoffs? You kidding me? Playoffs? I just hope we can win a game! Another game. ” Jim Mora
