ScottyIce Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Nebraska rolls into Wisconsin 7-0. Wisconsin hosts Nebraska after beating Michigan State, Michigan, Ohio State and Iowa. What are we ranked and what is Wisconsin ranked? What time does College Gameday start that morning in Wisky? 1 Quote Link to comment
Landlord Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Wisconsin would be at least #3 at that point. We'd probably be just on the outside of top 10. If both teams are undefeated, there's no way Gameday doesn't show up. Quote Link to comment
Undone Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Wisconsin would be #2, probably behind an unbeaten Alabama. They'd be #1 if Alabama loses a game by them. I think we will actually go 7-0, and I think we'll be ranked at probably #11 at that point. Fun thread topic. And I was so wrong about Wisconsin. Michigan State has dropped off at the QB position, but that Wisconsin defense is pretty great. Quote Link to comment
Herbie87 Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Is it possible that Wisconsin will be number 1 and we will be 7-0 for that game? Yes. Is it possible that we beat them and go to Ohio state as the new #1 team? Yes. Is it possible that gameday goes to 2 Nebraska games in consecutive weeks? YES!! Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted September 25, 2016 Author Share Posted September 25, 2016 Will be fun to watch our O vs their D. I'm not really worried about our D vs their O. Quote Link to comment
Hayseed Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 And strangely ,I'm still wondering if we'll beat Illinois.Great thread though. At this point I just don't see it happening......too many screw ups and lack of chemistry, soft coverage, lack of line control on both sides, inability to use talent....As much as I'd like to see it ,I'd say Wisconsin would be #2......we'd be about #10........after we got our butts whupped, we'd be back between 16-20. 1 Quote Link to comment
Guy Chamberlin Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 The fans can pretend, as long as the team stays One Game at a Time. 3 Quote Link to comment
grandpasknee Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 The fans can pretend, as long as the team stays One Game at a Time. Absolutely. And this is a fun thread. We do have a good chance of being 7-0. Wisky has a chance to stay undefeated, but they have a better chance, IMO, to lose a game before then. Brutal schedule. Would love to see it happen for sure!

If they beat Ohio State I would be really shocked. I still think OSU beats Wiscy by 3 plus touchdowns, even if they beat Michigan next week. Wisconsin has two losses when we play them and they will be beat up by the time we play them- advantage Nebraska. I think it will be a close game and we prevail at Wisconsin because we are due for a win against them, but the D-line needs to play a lot better. Clement had 54 tough yards rushing last week, but if we turn the ball over they will score with short fields. Quote Link to comment
CheeseHusker Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 If Wisconsin goes through that stretch unbeaten, they deserve to be #1, on merit. Maybe Alabama would feel a little slighted, but Wisconsin would have knocked off four teams that were in the top 10 at the time they played. Quote Link to comment
Apathy Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Michigan State is highly overrated. Their best win was against Notre Dame and ND just got beat by a bad Duke team. Wisconsin will lose to Michigan and tOSU and will beat Iowa. We should be ranked ahead of Wisconsin come game time but I think we'll lose to them again Quote Link to comment

Strange that you are concerned about Illinois I have seen a couple times that you have post our inability to use talent - can you explain in more depth? Where do you see the large advantage with Wisc - that we are going to get our butts whupped? Quote Link to comment

BoNeyard Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Shoot I should have read this thread and posted my post in here from the thread that talked about us being ranked 15th. I think Nebraska would be just inside the top 10 at that point, just looking at the other teams that would lose ahead of them and if Nebraska kept winning i think #9 would be very likely. Wiscosnin probably a #2; however, easily deserving of a #1 ranking. College Game day absolutely would be there. Now the question on how Nebraska would do. I do feel we SHOULD be 7-0 going into the Wisconsin game given we have Illinois (Revenge for us), Indiana, and Purdue (revenge for us). And we have a BYE week in there. Wisconsin at the end of that gauntlet could be physically and mentally exhausted and wore down. It could be a great opportunity for Nebraska to capitalize off of. Quote Link to comment

Where do you see the large advantage with Wisc - that we are going to get our butts whupped? I think we'll win, but the way we play down to teams, you never know. I have explained that many times, don't have time now. At this stage of the season and judging by our performance and their performance against the kind of teams we played, they look better. Pretty sure I just explained in the What We Learned thread why I think that. Inconsistency against athletically inferior teams doesn't give me any confidence in playing against a big school that can recruit and has destroyed us in the past. Quote Link to comment
