OT: Bye week predictions
- Thread starter bigboxes
- Start date
some intriguing conference matchups across the country
B1G:
minn(-3) @ sparty - first real test for minn, sparty coming off non-con L in seattle
iowa(-8) @ rutgers - this is not intriguing in the least and I assume nobody here will watch a second (I certainly won't) but it's on here because as of right now the total for this game is set at 34.5 points, which is maybe the lowest total in a college football game since the '90s
SEC:
#20 Florida @ #11 Tenn(-10) - game could make or break both seasons. UF historically owns Tenn.
#10 Arkansas @ #24 A&M (-2.5) - game in Cowboys Stadium. usually a shoot out. both teams probably overrated, but if Ark can get by the aggies they set up for a pretty fun run
ACC:
#5 Clemson(-7) @ #21 Wake Forest - Clemson beat them pretty handily last year (clem was way down, wf maybe best season ever. I don't think wake has the horses to keep up
Big 12:
#17 Baylor @ iowa st (-2.5) - interesting for those following Aranda closely. coming off an L in provo, baylor are road dogs yet again.

Bye Week 34I predict that the Huskers won't lose this week. It may be close though.
Nebraska 31
Best 1-4 team in the country
I'm bored so some predictions. Kind of sad I'm looking forward to NOT watching Nebraska this weekend...
Minnesota 34
MSU 27
Iowa 3
Rutgers 2 (Kidding. Sort of.)
Tennessee 34
Florida 23
Arkansas 35
A&M 31 (Both teams are probably more like 15-20 range in rankings)
Clemson 41
Wake 20 (Tired of Clemson but doubt they lose)
Iowa State 31
Baylor 27
If frost was still coaching I’d bet the farm we’d loseI predict that the Huskers won't lose this week. It may be close though.
here is some more bye week fodder:
was listening to Lovie Smith (good football coach), and he said height is the most overrated trait in players
isn't height one of the first things frost looked for in a prospect?
made me laugh

TheWayIWankIt will be intrigued by these games, given that at least two of the teams will be trailing in the 4th quarter!!!
I will probably watch some of this game, just to see if either coach finally decides his best strategy is to punt on 1st down.
"Over" and Iowa do not belong in the same sentence this year. Their offense is putrid.
An extremely low O/U is usually a good play. The law of averages eventually emerges. Maybe Rutgers will go bonkers on them.
You might make the over because defensive touchdowns will count. Safeties too.

I like to take a fair, unbiased, and at least somewhat detailed look at the games.
Rather than just blurting-out that a team or conference is great or stinks.
Ohio St vs Wisconsin
Is OSU the best team in the East and is Wisconsin the best team in the West? I like Ohio St big in this one.
OU vs KSU
How does AM and company do against OU? KSU keeps it closer than we did but OU is going to win convincingly.

Mich will still win bigSucker bet I fell for it…last year 59-18.
Hopefully KU and Baylor will hold up..
Maryland are terrible
But people predicting anything should be paying attention
Last week, Chins had a bye week. Two weeks ago, Scott Frost had a bye week. Bye!
Felt like the Terps made a mistake going for two with nearly 9:00 left. Big difference being down by 4 vs. down by 5, and Michigan just proved that with a FG.
