Now using that logic, look at the game logs for the Purdue and Northwestern games.
You didn't leave 3 TDs on the field because of your inept QB in those games.

Wisconsin was basically as close to beating OSU as they were to losing to Purdue and Northwestern. Which is why I wouldn't assume a victory over Wisconsin for OSU this year if they play.

So why would Meyer not give Dobbins the ball more if Barrett sucked so hard? Also why would Meyer now take the ball out of Haskins hands, now that he finally has a legit QB, if he is a Heisman finalist at least?

He did give the ball to Dobbins, he had 19 touches. What the hell are you even talking about?

That loss haunts me. It was the worst I've ever felt after a football game.

Basically what I was saying. Hopefully, we get to find out. :suds:

He's either on vacation @ the Gilligan Islands or he took a summer gig as an Elvis impersonator in Vegas.
I think he finally gave in to the rope, if you know what I mean

Their 5 in-conference road games are against teams that finished last year a combined 44-21 with two of them ending up with double-digit win totals. They travel to michigan and Penn State across the division, and they face the 3 teams that finished right behind them in the West last season all on the road (and they nearly lost to two of them last year at home).
Good data and it does look a lot more difficult than last year. Again, who knows how any of those opponents will turn out to be this year. In the end, it may even be tougher than what you've quoted from last year's data. And, some of those teams may end up being crap like Sparty was a couple of years ago. Don't know yet. Gotta play it out.

In addition to this post, as good as Wisconsin's running game will be, they honestly don't have the talent outside to go 12-0 this season with the schedule they have. Last season was a godsend of only 1 decent opponent from the West (Michigan) and even Michigan was very inexperienced and young.

Michigan is in the East.

Michigan will not win the East.
Hairbawl has a worst record at Michigan than Bo Pelini did at Nebraska in his first 3 years.

Pelini >>> Hairbawls

I predict Harbaugh will get caught eating boogers on TV again and disappointing the Wolverine fan base.

Jimmy Jam needs to find a different place to keep his mid-game snacks.

100%. If I were to guess, Penn State and Northwestern will take a step back, michigan and Purdue will take a step forward, and Iowa will be roughly the same.

I agree. I think Purdue will win a division championship before Nebraska does. Team of the not so distant future if they can keep Brohm.

If you think about it, Iowa has a better shot.

We are all "guessing" at this point.

Last year at this time we thought the winner of the Bama/FSU game would have a big notch in their belt. That win ended up not really helping Bama at all.
