BUTTHULL Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 We all now the current conference standings at the top of the B12 North: MU 3-1 CU 3-1 NU 2-2 What are some takes on how the three top teams will fare week to week to finish the regular season? All three of these teams face each other in the coming five weeks. Whose schedule appears to be most favorable? MU: at KU at CU vs Baylor at KSU CU: at KSU vs MU at ISU vs NU NU: vs OU at KU vs KSU at CU Here is my prediction for final reg season standings: CU (6-2) MU (5-3) NU (5-3) Quote Link to comment

I'm not saying it's impossible but just about. I would buy a loss to OU but not Kansas. Come on man! Quote Link to comment

MU (5-3): W at KU L at CU W vs Baylor L at KSU CU (6-2): W at KSU W vs MU L at ISU W vs NU NU (5-3): W vs OU L at KU W vs KSU L at CU If NU lost to KU and CU, the best they could be in conference is 4-4, homes. I disagree with that, though. Huskers win that one. Quote Link to comment
BigRedDallasTexan Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 I'm gunna steal a line from mike leach here because moses REALLY WAS in high school the last time nebraska lost to KU. I highly doubt that they can win against us this year. I could understand predictinga loss to CU or maybe OU but kansas? that's just embarassing to look at. Quote Link to comment
junior4949 Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 WHo do you have NU and MU losing to? MU (5-3): W at KU L at CU W vs Baylor L at KSU CU (6-2): W at KSU W vs MU L at ISU W vs NU NU (5-3): W vs OU L at KU W vs KSU L at CU I agree with the records at the end for the most part, but like said above a loss to both CU and KU will make us 4 and 4. I agree we'll be 5 and 3 with a loss to CU. I don't agree with CU losing to ISU. ISU isn't very good, and I think CU rolls them. With MU, I think they have a better chance at losing to Baylor right now than they do to KSU. However, it wouldn't surprise me that they lose to all 3. Baylor has a pretty decent run defense. I'm sure they'll watch the NU/MU film and see where our mistakes were made. MU is the wildcard. They could either go out and win the rest of their games, or they could just as easily drop 3 of these games. They're so inconsistent with their play, it's just too hard to call right now. CU has lost to I guess the number 1 team now according to the BCS and the number 6 or 7 team according to the BCS. They got beat handily by both. However, they're not playing top tier teams with the remainder of their schedule. They may lose one of the 4 left on their schedule, but I wouldn't be surprised to see them run the table. But, do they really want to play Texas again? I think it's CU's to lose. Quote Link to comment
Red November Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 I will be happy with 7 and 4, ecstatic with 8 and 3 and delirious with 9 and 2. Quote Link to comment

BUTTHULL Posted October 29, 2005 Author Share Posted October 29, 2005 oooops...how embarrassing. NU finishes 5-3. Losing to Colorado only. Not at KU. Sorry. Kay U is definitely not ready to take out NU. Quote Link to comment
NamelessHusker Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 Missouri in my opinion has 1 more winnable game. At KU tommarow will be a scare for them, and quite honestly, with KU winning the last 2 against Missouri by an average of 33 points, i wouldn't be suprised if KU won that game. The most hated team on KU's schedule is Missouri. They get up for that game like CU gets up for NU Quote Link to comment
Red Snow Sword: Husker Sentinel Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 Hmm.......... I have a feeling that Mizzou won't do so well down the road. I think the big game for NU will be against Colorado, as far as the BTnorth goes. That's just my early guess :shrug: OU, apparently, is winnable, esp at home KU should be a whoopin.... for the birds, but emphasis on should... KSU - Should be a win at home CU - ??? No one can give a decent guess at that. Too far down the road, too muchtime, too many injuries, don't know momentum, etc etc etc. NU doesn't have complete control of theirdestiny, but they certainly have a shot at getting the North division title Quote Link to comment

NU doesn't have complete control right now but they have 95% chance of still making the big 12 title game with a MU loss to CU and a CU loss to NU. Quote Link to comment
drewalt Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 o.k, if you said we (NU) were going to lose to KANSAS you should probably go die in a fire. There is no way we're losing to a team that's pretty much averaging 100 yds/game offence, we got tore up in Mizzou but we're going to use KU as a confidence builder. My prediction: NU-37 KU-6 Quote Link to comment
NUpolo8 Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 And what a nice reward for those young boys on any of those schools. "Congrats! Way to show some nad and eke out that Big 12 North title.....OH him? Yeah that's Vince Young....." I would love to see NU back in the title game but if a poor man's Vince Young in Brad SMith killed us what is that thing going to do to us? On a side note, 9am PST times kill me Quote Link to comment
