Northwestern did win their bowl game...over the team that beat BOTH the B1G and National Champions.While I'm a BigTen fan (except for UofM) I would like to see the conference do better during bowl season. But even as a fan of the conference I'd never pimp them up & say they were the best in any given year if they could ever get their shit together & finish a season w/ a good bowl record.
Honestly the way our offense was playing to end the year I think Oklahoma would have taken a 2nd game rather easily had it been played
I was kind of wondering about this. Those two teams went in opposite directions as the season wore on.
Makes no logical sense at all. Ohio State was ranked 128 in returning experience yet they peaked early?
How about 9 months later?I'd actually like to have played that game again during bowl season.
I find that very hard to believe. Oklahoma was obviously a good team, but before the Clemson game we averaged 39 ppg over the final 5 games. If we were able to do what we did to Nebraska, we would've still scored on Oklahoma. Don't forget, this was still a team that only gave up under 24 points in Big 12 play twice. Clemson beat us because of their elite DL and very good defensive backs. Oklahoma did not have those.Honestly the way our offense was playing to end the year I think Oklahoma would have taken a 2nd game rather easily had it been played
A head scratcher. But it did seem to go that way.
Well to be fair, we faced 4 more top 10 teams after we faced you guys and went 2-2. You guys didn't play any. Switch the schedules around and I'd be interested to see how things went down.I was kind of wondering about this. Those two teams went in opposite directions as the season wore on.
Washington #4??? I'd take any of the other top 11 straight up over the Huskies.Others receiving votes: Kansas St. 83, Georgia Tech 47, Nebraska 38, W. Kentucky 32, Air Force 30, Pittsburgh 21, Boise St. 19, Iowa 14, Minnesota 12, Tulsa 10, BYU 9, Temple 8, Houston 8, North Carolina 8, Navy 1, Washington St. 1.

How about 9 months later?
Who's gonna be carrying the rock for you guys? I've got no knowledge on your RBs behind Mixon and Perrine. Is that Adams kid good?That works too. Though we'll both be breaking in new players. Brand new guys at our RB position, replacing Westbrook, and at least one of our ILB though Evans wasn't great for a lot of the year anyways. Our O and D lines as well as our secondary should be better though.

What about WR/TE?We've actually recruited really well at RB. Rodney Anderson will most likely be the starter. Guy looks like he can be a beast. He actually would've been third on the depth chart this year, but a freak injury ended his season early. Shouldn't affect him going forward though.
After that it will either be Adams or possibly a kid coming in this year out of Georgia named Tre Sermon. He looks like he has loads of potential. Abdul Adams has the potential and looked good at times during brief playing time, but definitely needed a year to mature. He did hold a Bama offer if that tells you anything.
Basically, there's plenty of reason to be optimistic, especially with us returning our entire line, but they've still got to go out there and do it.
What about WR/TE?
