Rutgers could make some noise in the B1G this year... Experienced QB, good RB, and Ralph Fridgerator calling plays... Look out

Let's remember now that they are currently losing to wazzu. Not saying they won't, but they are gonna have to do better than this.

Not saying a b1g contender. But have the pedigree to be better than expected. Maybe a bowl and upset a good b1g team or two. .500 in b1g I would say exceeds expectations in year 1

Kyle Flood doing a great job right now. Very calculated gameplan, hasn't tried anything stupid or risky. Scored when in range. Remember, they also play in the B1G. They don't have to be world beaters to win 8 games.

WSU was a bowl team so thats still better than 4 teams in the Big Ten last season.

I haven't looked at their schedule but I'm sure it's not easy. I know one of their crossover games is at Nebraska and they have to play Michigan, MSU and OSU in the east. .500 might be pretty hard.

A bowl team that lost to Colorado State when they had a 15pt lead and 3 mins to go in the game...

Just sayin. :whistle:

:pound: Give me a break. If they win 8 games their coach should win the COY award.

Yep , it's a tough draw. Add Wisky and Penn state

Cougs can't stop the run inside even when they know it's coming. Doesn't bode well for the gauntlet they will face in the Pac.

Yep. Just looked at it. They also get Navy (option's a bitch to prepare for in 1 week) and Indiana can score with the best of them. I only see 2 or 3 pretty safe wins on the schedule.

I think you guys will get over the hump this year. Nebraska is due a great season.

I have a good feeling about it. Everyone here is super pessimistic and I'm hoping we will surprise everyone, even our own fans. I really don't understand why everyone is so down on us because we have some talent and experience at key positions.

Same old cougs as far as I can see. Big play offense and no defense.
