Hunter94 Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 I would say number 41 is pretty high for a team coming off a 7-6 season and needing to replace bunches in the lines. I guess I view this as pretty positive really. Do I think we can do better? Yes, but to finish number 41, we will need atleast 9 or 10 wins. Can we end up in the top 25? Long shot but maybe with a little more GOOD luck this season. Could we end up number 55? Yup. Not out of line at all. That would require us to win 7 or so. I don't know where we would have been 'ranked' last year after the bowl game but probably around number 60. So this is a good jump up in my view. 41 would be about 8-5 for a team from the Big Ten 9 or 10 wins in the Big Ten would be ranked in the range of 10-28 Based on the way we played last season it would be fair to say our record could have ranged from 4-8 (no bowl game ) to 11-2 I think 41 would be on the low side for my prediction. Win over Oregon and we go 12-2 (bowl loss or ccg loss) Loss to Oregon and we go 9-4 (bowl win and no cc game) just my own opinion, but the Oregon game, to me, is not going to be indicative of Big 10 play..

MichiganDad3 Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Do we finally end the Solich curse this year? It has been too long since we had a season with less than 4 losses. 2 Quote Link to comment

Big Ten football and playing Oregon are not very similar. However, I feel like the team woke up with the win against UCLA and the Oregon game would be a spring board into a solid season.
