Heaven forbid the season goes that poorly, I have a hard time seeing they'll lose every game to all the good teams on their schedule. They did beat MSU at home in 2015 in the midst of 5-7 season, after all.

Forgot to tally this up and lock the poll before yesterday so this will have to do.

 

8-4 is the leading vote-getter (30.8%) followed by 9-3 (25.6%).  Only about 15% went with worse than 8-4.

 

Basically unanimous wins: Arkansas State, Northern Illinois, Rutgers, Illinois, Prudue

Vast majority (>75%) wins: Northwestern, Minnesota, Iowa

Coin Flips: Oregon, Wisconsin

Expected losses: Ohio State, Penn State

 

So if we can get the vast-majority wins and better, that's 8.  After that .... we'll see.

All the vast majority wins would be 8, not 7.

[the paradigm]

I'm going with 6-6, with losses to Oregon, Wisconsin, Ohio St., Penn St., Minnesota, Iowa, and either Purdue or NW

Yeah .... uhhhh....... . thanks.

Something is wrong with this poll. I voted for 10-2 but my vote doesn't show. And it says 7 people picked that but 8 names show up when you click on the doohickey. #fakenews

[Mavric]

As far as your vote not showing up, if you voted before this thread got merged with another thread, it deleted all those votes and people had to start over.

 

As to the second part, perhaps an official from the 1991 Colorado/Missouri game is in charge of counting?  

[HuskermanMike]

My votes were deleted as well. But since I posted in this thread what I thought our record would this season its all good.

1-0 in the unanimous category.

0-1 in the coin flip category

 

So we're sitting at a 9-3 or 8-4 prediction with Wisconsin as the coin flip.

[r06ue1]

7-5 after seeing the start we are having, could be worse.
