I'll give you the spread. 16.5 at the minimum. If it ends up higher by gameday you can have the bigger number.

End of bowl season or 1 week?

New Years Eve I want to fly a Badger logo for The Rose Bowl if possible. Or you can wear one until then. :D


Deal 16.5 or better

I think we should give some props to IU, Illinois and Minny for the seasons they had.

With that, do you think they can build off the year they all had? Are they heading in the right direction or did they catch a break with scheduling and timing?

Gophers might be able to build on it for next season. They return everyone on offense outside of Johnson (they lose a couple RB's, but they are a RBBC anyway). They lose a ton on defense so that's where the hesitation is. They could be in some shootouts next season. Not sure about the other two teams.

Illinois is very young. Decent class coming in and a few freshman that were redshirted. Crossover schedule I don't know about. They should be a better team but have a worse record.

I have no idea about Indiana.

The coaching on Indiana was fantastic this year. The talent on that team should've probably been 4-8, but they were the opposite. Ohio State clearly was out of their league, but the Michigan State and Penn State games were extremely close losses. Patrick Ramsey is an underrated QB who put up solid numbers, and Whop Philyor and Stevie Scott both had really good seasons with some big games. They all return next year, and you can already see the difference Tom Allen is making in recruiting: they already have three 4* commits for 2020; they haven't even had one 4* commit since 2014.

As long as Allen stays, I think the future is bright there.

they've got a good backup qb too. mullen's a fantastic corner, going to be annoying watching him the next few years

Maybe someone else already posted this, if not thought this was impressive.

OSU finally achieves the trifecta of awards in the B1G.

Coach of the Year: Ryan Day
Offensive player of the year:Justin Fields
Defensive player of the year: Chase Young

We've had the "best player" in the B1G 6 out of the last 8 years (think that's correct), and probably will again next year.

would love to see us play Auburn. one of my favorite non-UM schools, not to mention they have a damn good team. besides, they've only played twice (1984 and 2001).

Only shot would probably be Georgia winning tomorrow

If Georgia loses, you probably get Florida, haha

ugh. I was so pissed when it was announced we were playing Florida last year. nothing against UF, but I'd rather face SEC teams we're not so familiar with. I was hoping for an LSU bowl last year.

That's what happens when you finish 3rd in the division




(Yes, that was a shot at both michigan and Florida)
