Saunders Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Quote 2019 Preseason Big Ten Team-By-Team Predictions For Every Game If you thought last season in the West was wacky, good luck with this year’s version. Wisconsin might have a slew of issues, but it also gets several key games at home. Unfortunately, it also plays Michigan and goes to Michigan State. Nebraska has just about all of its biggest games at home – don’t be shocked if it takes down Ohio State … but we’re not ready to call that just yet. 2019 Nebraska Football Schedule 2019 Preseason Prediction: 7-5 2019 Preseason Big Ten Prediction: 5-4 2018 Record: 4-8 – 2019 Nebraska Preview Aug. 31 South Alabama W Sept. 7 at Colorado L Sept. 14 Northern Illinois W Sept. 21 at Illinois W Sept. 28 Ohio State L Oct. 5 Northwestern W Oct. 12 at Minnesota L Oct. 19 OPEN DATE Oct. 26 Indiana W Nov. 2 at Purdue L Nov. 9 OPEN DATE Nov. 16 Wisconsin W Nov. 23 at Maryland L Nov. 30 Iowa W https://collegefootballnews.com/2019/06/big-ten-football-schedule-team-predictions-for-every-game-2019/2 1 Quote Link to comment
JJ Husker Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 What's crazier, this one at 7-5 or the guys who have us at 10-2? I'm gonna say 7-5 is further off the mark. Quote Link to comment

THere's still a lot of question marks, and until we get over the hump, I'm going to remain skeptical. I'll open a "call your shot" thread once we get to the media days cycle. Quote Link to comment

Same, I just don't think all of them happen. I could see Colorado or Maryland sneaking up on us, but not both. Maryland is has a better run game than Illinois, so it could turn into a weird shootout. Similar with Purdue and Minnesota - wouldn't be surprised at all if we lose either of those games, I just don't think it's both. Quote Link to comment
Undone Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Wisconsin plays Michigan, Michigan State, and Ohio State. They have a very, very slim chance at winning the West with that tough schedule. Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 7-5 is crazier than 10-2. 2 Quote Link to comment

I'm gonna say 7-5 is further off the mark. 10-2 is crazier than 7-5. All of our question marks/deficiencies will have be addressed in order to reach 10-2. Key injuries and other bad luck (penalties, turnovers) could easily derail our season. 3 Quote Link to comment

I think 9-3 is more likely than 8-4, therefore 10-2 seems less unlikely than 7-5. I wouldn’t be shocked by any of those regular season records. Quote Link to comment
huskered17 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 The only game I used to worry about was the Okla game, back in the day. Now I would like to have to only worry about, the OSU game, in season or Conf finale. Have a hard time seeing us lose to the type of teams, we used to never worry about. I think Frost is going to restore those days again, if the D comes around soon. GBR!!! 1 Quote Link to comment
Hilltop Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 The writer lost me when he picked us to lose at Colorado... There is no reason we should drop that game. New coach, new system, and inferior talent. On top of those three factors, there won't be much of a home field advantage with 1/3 of the stadium wearing red. I also question the Maryland game loss... the other three seem like reasonable predictions. I have us at 8-4 or 9-3 on the low end and 10-2 or maybe 11-1 if the stars align. 1 Quote Link to comment
broganreynik Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 While I am more confident in Coach Frost than I have been with any of our coaches since T.O., I have found myself tempering my expectations this year. After having overconfident expectations every season, two 4-8 seasons have me fighting trepidation. I struggle to think we will win nine games. Yet, when I look at our schedule, I don’t see a game I think we can’t win. So, while I usually would say “B1G Championship, fo sho”, I’m now thinking “maybe we can back into a division title...?”. I can’t wait to shake this feeling. Addendum: maybe all of my overly optimistic hysteria has been channeled into the Browns, as I have been thinking “we could reach the Super Bowl!” 2 1 Quote Link to comment
