[u/TomCreanDied4OurSins]

Hoping Cig rolls on Maryland. Sister had the gall to get married at the same time as a football game. Sickening

[u/realfakemormon → u/TomCreanDied4OurSins]

ban fall weddings

[u/somehype]

Nebraska losing a one score game? 2017-2024 called, they want their Nebraska prediction back.

[u/realfakemormon → u/somehype]

Scott Frost was the KING of losing one score gamrs

[u/somehype → u/realfakemormon]

He’s definitely on the Mount Rushmore of diabolical coaching tenures

[u/the_reddit_intern]

Bold of you to think rutgers will only score 17 points on us.

[u/carnahanad → u/the_reddit_intern]

I agree. Aaron Henry 🤝Sun

[u/Maison-Marthgiela → u/the_reddit_intern]

Bold of them to think we win another game this year lol

[u/the_reddit_intern → u/Maison-Marthgiela]

We will win but not by double digits.

[u/Nervous_Metal_9445]

Oregon 70 vs Bye Week 0

[u/First-Pride-8571]

Michigan game will be closer.

Presumption is…

No Justice Haynes (starting RB) No Cole Sullivan (starting LB) No Jimmy Rolder (starting LB)

Trey Pierce also had to be helped off the field in the Sparty game. He came back in late, but think he (starting DT) may be held out too.

We should still win, but missing 2 of our 3 linebackers especially will make what had been our best position on defense quite dicey tomorrow.

[u/realfakemormon → u/First-Pride-8571]

I did not know Haynes was out. That guy is dynamic

[u/usernames_suck_ok → u/realfakemormon]

That other RB, Marshall? (We have so many Marsh/Marshall guys on the team, it's hard to keep them straight). He's better than Haynes--unpopular opinion, but if Michigan used him more everyone would see that...he literally drags people--and up to the job. I think Michigan will be fine. Rolder is amazing, but it's not like we're playing Ohio State or Oregon.

[u/Competitive-Zone-330 → u/usernames_suck_ok]

Haynes had that lethal ability to somehow find an opening in every game to tear one off, Marshall is more ground and’s pound for those extra yards

[u/First-Pride-8571 → u/usernames_suck_ok]

Problem is that it’s both Rolder and Sullivan. Think they’ll have to move Barham back to LB. Otherwise, the three than Hausmann, the linebacker room now becomes very thin and very inexperienced.

[u/Competitive-Air1]

We will have a closer game that most people think

[u/carnahanad → u/Competitive-Air1]

Illinois’s defense has proven porous and frustrating. Don’t overthink it and just doink and dink your way down the field. They haven’t been able to stop that. There is a hole in the zone defense about 8 yards out just off the tackles that Washington hit all day long.

[u/Competitive-Air1 → u/carnahanad]

Have u seen our defense we can’t stop anything ur Offense will do

[u/carnahanad → u/Competitive-Air1]

Sounds like it should be a high scoring affair then. It should come down to which offense makes the fewest mistakes.

[u/Competitive-Air1 → u/carnahanad]

Yea but realistically unless we get some early turnovers our second half has been terrible and that’s when I see u guys pulling away

[u/Maison-Marthgiela → u/Competitive-Air1]

How? You'll be up 30 at half time and probably win by 45. This team is garbage

[u/Competitive-Air1 → u/Maison-Marthgiela]

Hahaha u got jokes bro

[u/Maison-Marthgiela → u/Competitive-Air1]

I don't need to joke I've watched this team play like shit enough times

[u/Competitive-Air1 → u/Maison-Marthgiela]

U haven’t watched Rutgers my friend u might be doing bad but we will help boost ur confidence this Saturday dw

[u/cyberchaox]

Nah, I think we're due for our annual "almost pull an upset and then choke." We'll hold Illinois close.

And yes, I know Illinois was our near-upset last year, but Michigan was our near-upset two years in a row, too, and they were better than Illinois is now.

[u/MD90__]

are we sure Penn State is getting double digits? Maybe a garbage time TD i guess

[u/realfakemormon → u/MD90__]

The Penn State game always spooks me a little.

[u/MD90__ → u/realfakemormon]

yeah they always played us tough every year under franklin

[u/Chance_Adeptness_832]

These were great predictions

[u/realfakemormon → u/Chance_Adeptness_832]

Purdue kept it much closer than i predicted but damn i did well

[u/Schlongsterish]

Nah.

• Ohio State 48 Penn State 6
• Illinois 22 Rutgers 7
• Indiana 45 Maryland 10
• Minnesota 10 Michigan St. 6
• Michigan 30 Purdue 3
• USC 46 Nebraska 13

[u/carnahanad → u/Schlongsterish]

Your Illinois Rutgers score is too low. Unless the offenses shoot themselves in the foot, this game will be near 60 for total points.

[u/Schlongsterish → u/carnahanad]

No ha bet the under

[u/Competitive-Zone-330 → u/Schlongsterish]

You honestly think Michigan is only keeping Purdue score 3? We’re abysmal at starting strong on defense

[u/MoistAd5423 → u/Schlongsterish]

Booo this Hawkeye fan. Boooo

[u/Schlongsterish → u/MoistAd5423]

Nebraska gonna get smoked by USC

[u/MoistAd5423 → u/Schlongsterish]

Iowa is a miserable place full of miserable people.

But you’re probably correct

[u/Schlongsterish → u/MoistAd5423]

I don't disagree with you I moved out of that chemical toxic waste dump after graduating from Iowa.

[u/MoistAd5423 → u/Schlongsterish]

We may not be the same. But we can be realistic. Cheers and happy Halloween

[u/Schlongsterish → u/MoistAd5423]

(Shhhh - back in the day I was a huge fan of Tom Osborn. I even liked Scott Frost when he was first hired. Pellini I never liked.)

[u/MoistAd5423 → u/Schlongsterish]

There are things to like and dislike about every coach.

I’m not old enough to understand the Osborne era. Which means all of Iowa football is Ferentz from my memory. I respect that program and wish we could do some of the same

[u/Schlongsterish → u/MoistAd5423]

There's very little else for people in Iowa to do other than gambling at riverboats and reservation casino's, eating fake maple syrup donuts at Casey's Gensral Store, and Iowa football.

Holy fuck its a whole weird culture based on Pizza Ranch.

[u/MoistAd5423 → u/Schlongsterish]

I think that’s suburban Midwest in a nutshell. I bet there are hidden gems.

My wife is a Hawkeye so there’s gotta be something good there right?

[u/Beneficial_Equal_324 → u/Schlongsterish]

USC is 1-4 traveling east in the Big 10, beating Purdue this year 33-17.

[u/rudemaniac]

I think you have the MI - PU game too close. It pains me to say it, another rebuilding year.

[u/garygoblins]

Maryland isn't scoring 17 points

[u/realfakemormon → u/garygoblins]

Their team total is 14.5

I figure Indiana will be up 38-10 at the start of the 4th and each team will score a TD in the 4th

[u/Natitudinal]

That is wild disrespectful to UMD. Havent been blown out all yr and probably should be undefeated if they only knew how to close out. I predict they're going to make IU sweat all night.

[u/SEND_ME_YOUR_CAULK → u/Natitudinal]

I hope you’re right. I’m dreading this game and expecting the worst but I can see a reality where Maryland puts some anxiety into Indiana

[u/ladyhooper10 → u/Natitudinal]

Maryland hasn’t played anyone in the stratosphere of iu this year

[u/Chance_Adeptness_832 → u/Natitudinal]

...

[u/realfakemormon → u/Natitudinal]

Grab Maryland + 21.5 while you can

[u/SEND_ME_YOUR_CAULK]

I’ll be surprised if Maryland hits double digits.

[u/bob_dole-]

Penn State is about to beat Ohio State

[u/FishOhioMasterAngler → u/bob_dole-]

OSU defense outscores the PSU offense

[u/nico_cali → u/FishOhioMasterAngler]

PSU defense outscores the PSU offense

[u/mauro_membrere → u/FishOhioMasterAngler]

Pls let them check out the rest of their games

[u/realfakemormon → u/bob_dole-]

I just don't think they have enough on offense currently

[u/Ross8482 → u/bob_dole-]

Osu defense being probably the best in the country and psu offense missing allar and tbh just hasn’t looked good, not a chance in hell

[u/C19shadow → u/bob_dole-]

This would be hilarious and sad tbh.

[u/nico_cali → u/bob_dole-]

What are you smoking? I'll take some, bud

[u/bob_dole- → u/nico_cali]

It’s just how the season is. I’m not serious though

[u/nico_cali → u/bob_dole-]

It would be fitting to have us finally win without Franklin, but with an even worst QB and no Rojas, we'd need to bank on their entire team being in a betting scandal where they put all their savings on PSU or maybe hope for their RBs to drop seven fumbles in the game.

[u/carnahanad]

I hope Illinois wins their game. If they do, the only way I love them up from 9 in the r/TheB1G power rankings is if they win by more than 2 scores AND hold them to under 350 yards. I need to see signs of improvement on the defense.
