My Iowa fan buddy just chimed in this week:

 

When Iowa is supposed to be 7-5 they play lights out. When people are talking winning the West and having the best D-Lineman in the country......they fall flat. 

 

Typically, the “rebound” season always seems to occur after the Ferentz’ hot seat chatter starts up.

I think the toughest games (in order) are

1. Northwestern

2. Iowa

3. Purdue

4. Wisconsin

5. Minnesota

6. Ohio St.

That site has Iowa going 11-1, and Ohio State 12-0 also.

Weird.  Junk in, junk out.

That's why Vegas lines are the best predictor, they back up their predictions by allowing you to wager against them.

Is the first link the composite rating or a computer rating? It seems like a ranking based on returning production vs lost production. I don't think most experts or rational fans would see a 5-7 season barring major injuries.

To be honest, I would have said the same thing about last year. Because what happened was not rational.

By some statistical accounts last year was not rational. So hopefully we don't have two of those years in a row.

Composite.  Average of computers, sportswriter feelings and polls.  i.e. Coaches Poll and eventually CFP committee inputs.

 

Red text means the best rankings.  Blue is the worst.  Massey's got #45 in Nebraska row.

 

Final 2018 composite rankings, #77 (Huskers).  Total of 107 ranking inputs.  https://www.masseyratings.com/ranks?s=cf&dt=20190107
