The best time of year is closing in fast.... Chasing after big bucks and watching Buckeyes football.... Can it get any better???? Anyhow, I am pretty optimistic that the Bucks should have a nice season. The Big Ten has a lot of talent this year, should be a great season to watch. I am pumped to have another tradition rich program in Nebraska coming to the league next year as well. I cant wait for the "best damn band in the land's" instruments to sound off for the first time of the new season through my stereo.... After my family, bow season and buckeyes football are my passions and I can't wait to get into it How is your teams outlook?
You probably already know this but your Buckeyes will be fighting my Badgers and Iowa for the title IMO. The Badgers will score a ton of points this year. The question will be if we can stop anyone. Luckily OSU has to visit Camp Randall this year for a 6pm night kickoff. Hopefully the results will be similar to the last time that occurred, circa 2003.
Expectations are low this year for the Vols. Too much turmoil and turnover the last couple of years to have any high expectations. I personally think the future is bright though with Coach Dooley, time will tell though.
I think Wis has dynamic offense potential. Iowa should have a great defense again this year but I am not sold on their offense. If Wis puts it together on defense... I feel Wis tops Iowa this year in the Big Ten standings I am not saying this as a fan but I feel Ohio State will win the Big 10 this year, their pool of elite talent is deep.
Missouri wins the North and Nebraska will be exposed with Suh gone this year. The Huskers will be extremely booed in every away game this year in conference.
Potentially good, only from the standpoint that the season could be so bad that Rodriguez gets fired. Not piling on...I was never a fan of the hire from the beginning. I hate that I'm always right.
I do not understand the sour grapes coming from Big 12 teams. Nebraska has brought a lot to that conference but were treated like a step child to OU and Texas. There is not a team in that league other than Texas that would not have come to the Big Ten had an invitation been given.
What Wisconsin needs is to split the OSU and @Iowa games and win the other six games and hope that OSU slips up at least once. Wisconsin has the tie-breaker on the rose bowl over OSU and is my goal for the team this season..
No, at least we can beat your guys at Camp Randell now. When Loyd was coaching we would find a way to lose at home also against meatchicken. BTW, I was at that game two years ago in AA. Talk about tucking your tail between your legs.
Wis has played OSU the best of any Big Ten program over the past decade. It is usually an exciting game to watch. I look forward to the trip to Camp Randall. I think the trip to the Big House could be a backbreaker to WIS's Big Ten hopes this year. If WIS doesn't get their defense together... We both know the Wolverines will score points this year, they are a very fast and athletic offense. If Wis's defense doesn't gel I can see the Maze and Blue coming away with a W.
It was one of the highlights from that season...and there weren't many. Actually, that may have been the only one.
Considering the Badgers won 3 straight times at the shoe from the late 90's to early 2000's.... yes we have had our share of success against OSU. We match up well against sweater vest's game plan. I visited the Shoe in 2004 for the 17-0 comeback by the Badgers. Great times. God help us if this happens.
I guess my point was that we play your guys hard because we typically match up pretty well. Ahhhh, yes Cooper. Why did you guys get rid of him again?
I don't miss Coop. He had probably the top 2 most talented teams in OSU history in the late 90's and and blew it against UM with one of those and MSU with the other. I will say Cooper was an excellent recruiter though.
