Pretty close on the rest

East
Michigan will win it, rest meh.




I've been saying for a while I think we end up 9-3 and 2nd in the division but putting it down on paper, I can't see us being 9-3 and not winning it and I don't see us losing more than 3.

It's not like there's anything majorly wrong. Just that they have some holes. No RBs, avg OL, and they don't have the talent on defense to match what they lost. Offense going to play faster and that should expose the defense over the course of the season. 9 or 10 wins, sure. Don't see em running the table.

Sparty will win the East this year as they have the best Defense in the BIG, coupled with a healthy Brian Leuwerke spells trouble.

I think the title game will be Iowa vs Michigan St. Would obviously love to see Nebraska but think we’re young on oline and LB depth will hurt us.

Wiscy has Michigan, MSU and Iowa at home, and us, Ohio State and Minnesota on the road. Not sure how they only lose 2 of those games. I would say at least 3 (MI, OSU and us) and likely 4. They lost 4 offensive lineman, are starting Jack Coan (who was pretty bad in his starts last year), and lost their NT, 3 linebackers in TJ Edwards, Van Ginkel, and Connelly, and Dacota Dixon. They also lost Gaglione who was a great kicker for them.

Wiscy will take another step back this year. After JT declares for the NFL next year they will again take a step back.

Doesn't it just feel like their year? They'll probably have a close game on Friday against a bad opponent. They'll just have trouble moving the ball and give up a couple big plays. People will think they're average. Next thing you know, they're 8-0

this is all wrong . Michigan thinks they have best ol in the conference and one of the best in the country. they are calling it the best ol they have had in 12 years.

not surprising they would think that and Wariner is a really good OL coach if he sticks to OL play.

Stueber is out for the year. To start the season, Runyon is also out. That's both of your starting OTs. With Runyon, I'm hearing it's a back issue and you never know if he'll get healthy all the way. Their inside OL play is def a strength.

Oline is mediocre at best. Lewerke is still shell shocked from last year.

That South Dakota team came to fight. Undersized LBs that played with heart. Probably not hard to get motivated when you can beat a team in higher division though

and, I suppose it's easy to come out flat against an FCS opponent when you're hyped up pre-season and you're used to...... umm, basically never winning anything ever

Tuco is wise in all things college football.

Seriously though I'll have to see Michigan beat the Buckeyes before I believe it.

I'm glad the Goofs won last night but I don't see them being a darkhorse in the west. They got lucky.

Go Blue!
