Saunders Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Quote Big Ten Preseason Predictions For Every Game: Preview 2022 You want the predictions for the 2022 Big Ten football season? It’s not all that hard …Ohio State is going to be fantastic, and now it’s mad.We got the Michigan curveball last year. It’s rebuilding, but it’s still going to be strong. Michigan State and Penn State are good, Wisconsin is really good, Iowa is Iowa, and others like Maryland and Nebraska should rise up and have good seasons.Who can catch the Buckeyes? More interesting will be a few strange twists and turns. Most of the solid teams can hang with or beat anyone else in the conference, and on the right day an Illinois or Northwestern or Rutgers should have the formula to pull off something fun. There are two more years before USC and UCLA come aboard. That’s all anyone will be talking about, but until then, this season should be entertaining – at least outside of what OSU will probably do.

BigRedBuster Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Why would Rutgers be a loss? I could see Minnesota, Illinois or Purdue….but Rutgers? Quote Link to comment

Why should Rutgers be a win? Friday night game on the road. Schiano is a hell of a coach and he will be in year 3. At this point I don't think we can assume that any game in the B1G is a win. Under Frost vs the B1G we are 10-25, never won more than 3 conference games in a season, and have won 4 road games in 4 years. We do catch a break in that Rutgers will have Ohio St the week before our game and hopefully is a bit beat up. 7 1 Quote Link to comment

Ummm….but, we are going to beat Illinois, Minnesota, and Purdue. serious question, what is Nebraska’s record against Rutgers since both joined the conference? 2 2 Quote Link to comment

admo Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Wisconsin and Iowa at #1 in West???! Ok, Ok.. I better start reading up on them even more. I think Iowa is going to have a drop, and the Badgers will have the same season as the past 4 years (conf record 6-3, 3-3, 7-2, 5-4). Nothing amazing. To win the West, it's right there in front of you. Huskers need to take advantage of it. Or Minnesorta will. Or Purdue will. You know what I'm sayin? 1 Quote Link to comment

I agree with Iowa, unless they figure out offense. Wisconsin I don't know what's going to happen. Quote Link to comment

For some reason and I have nothing to back it up, I could see that game being a "wow, NU is having a great season" game, where for some reason they just s#!t the bed. I guess I imagine there will be one s#!tty game that the Huskers have no business losing but end up losing. 1 Quote Link to comment

So….Ummm….ok….so again, why are we going to beat all those other teams and lose to Rutgers? @Red Five I believe that the Huskers win that game. I'm more concerned about Minnesota. It seems like NU craps the bed when we play them. Iowa and Wisconsin, NU can play with them. Just need to clean up the stupid mistakes and they win. Michigan is more of an unknown. We know they lost some players, but did they replace them? Harbaugh had a great year last year, but has questionable games since he's been there. Just don't know. OU is kind of an unknown as well. New coach, lots of good players leave. Quote Link to comment

Right now I would guess we win 1 of those games. And I don't think losing to Rutgers is all that far fetched. Also I don't think results against Rutgers from 1920, 2014, 2015, and 2017 have any impact on a game in 2022. 2 Quote Link to comment
Dogs In A Pile Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 When you've only won 4 B1G road games in 4 years no game is a lock. Just look at Ill. last year. 2 1 Quote Link to comment
Savage Husker Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 If there isn’t a trophy game between Minny and Rutgers, then I’d like to see it called the Choppin Boats Trophy or Tacky Catch Phrase Trophy Quote Link to comment
