@SteelersPride you had Michigan State twice, so I did not count your poll in this.

How far do 4 and 5 drop if they lose a game?

I would drop Wisconsin further down than 5. I would keep TCU in Top 15, possibly Top 10 depending on who loses in other games. I don't go by previous week. I don't even look at it. I try to look at their records and try to go by who they beat and all. I am not great at that either. But if Wisconsin loses, I would put them around 15th.

If Wisconsin loses this week they should free fall. Illinois is terrible. After that, they have @Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, @Minnesota (rivalry game). An actual decently competitive 4 game stretch. Hoosiers are no pushover this year and Minnesota likes to play up to Wisky. Iowa is always decent but should be handled at Camp Randell. Michigan could easily win if they develop an offense. All four games Wisky should win but they aren't they easy decisions the Badgers have been facing

LMAO at Michigan easily winning vs Wisconsin win they won on a bomb hail mary one score despite 3 int's on the road vs Michigan by our freshman QB. If Bart Houston starts that game last year they win easily. Now the Badgers are much better than last season and Michigan is worse than last season. I can see us running up the score on them and putting our second stringers in the 4th Q.

First off, I said Wisconsin should win all four games. That means the Michigan one too

Second, Michigan could very well beat Wisconsin if they were able to string together a competent offense. They dominated every single statiscal category in that game last year. The Badgers are lucky they didn't lose by 20.

Finally, fuck you for making me defend Michigan, dick

"Could string together a competent offense" Well that hypothetical isn't going to happen any time this year.

Since Gary Anderson has left nobody has come close to beating the Badgers by 20 except bama by 18 on the road. Most of that was due to the fact we were stuck with some horrible Gary Anderson recruits that ruined much of our offense and defense.

There was no conceivable way that horrendous Michigan offense would beat the Badgers by 20 points when they scored 7 points until the slip of the DB for the lucky bomb to win 14-7 with not one not two but three int's by the freshmen QB who played the worst game I've ever seen. Yes that's right even worse than some of the all time favorite Joel Stave worst games. Dude was the MVP for Michigan and despite this they won by 20 points. Again, Michigan completely lucked out in not having to face Bart Houston and instead facing the Freshman QB.

That might be a record since I've never seen an OSU fan defend Michigan. I took a screen shot and saved it on the cloud.
