There are still 6 wins on the schedule.

I thought before the season we were probably going to lose to OSU, Wisconsin , and Michigan anyway so those didn’t bother me as much . We got dominated by Michigan , but I thought in the Wisconsin game there were some bright spots , and players still trying hard til the final whistle even in a loss . I think we have the team to beat Nortwestern, Minnesota , BC, MSU , Iowa, Illinois and if we keep from killing ourselves,  we can definitely win those games . I don’t think we have the players to beat OSU I just want to see our team compete hard for 4 quarters and not give up against them like last year .

Put down the tomatoes, don’t throw them at me. I drank the koolaide by the gallon this summer and still have some leftovers in my fridge that I sneak off and drink sometimes. I love this coach, and each week I love this team more and more. So hear me out. Even I’ll conceed that OSU outclasses us enough at this point in the season that we probably can’t compete this year.   But that’s not true for the other 6.  It’s going to take injury luck and continued improvement each week. But if we can find a way to snag a win this weekend, take one game at a time, view it as championship weekend every week with a bowl game up for grabs, it could happen still. If we can beat NW, then we should be able to matchup with the likes of Minnesota and Iowa as well. Bethune and Illinois are the easiest W’s left, obviously, so if we can keep focus and not pull the traditional “NU forgets to show up,” thing, those go our way.  That leaves MSU, which haven’t looked unstoppable imo. If you can find a way to play that game above you heads a bit, again, knowing the postseason lies on the other side, it’s not unreasonable. This weekend is huge. May be the last great chance at gigantic direction change for 2018. 


L.M.A.O.

 
Michigan State look pretty uninspired this season and is beatable. 

Basically if we have 500 yards of offense like we've had three times this season, don't have offensive penalties that stall drives, and improve on special teams yes, we could win six.
ST looked immediately better with a Punter. That is one reason to be optimistic about ST going forward.

 
Well, to be fair to the thread title, there were 11 wins on the schedule when we started this season. And where are we at on that?

 
Congrats to @Husker03 for being the first poster to win Huskerboard Bingo!  I don't think anyone else was able to get all the new emoji thingies into one post.

Let me know where you want the framed picture sent to.
