Oh wait a second hold up bro. Nebraska still should be favored against Michigan State for sure. They aren't that good you are judging that against their win vs Northwestern. A few years back they some very good offensive players and a great defense. Then they lost their offensive players but still had a great defense. Now they have lost their defensive and their defense isn't the same. Not only should we beat northwestern. We should still be the favorites against MSU. We are still the better team. Just got to not beat ourselves. Vegas will likely have us favored. Illinois game still hurts they be trash.
MSU will be favored, it's pretty much a lock at this point, at least from Vegas. They'll most likely play Miami close or beat them and we will have a multi TD loss the week before our game with them.
OK, point remains, we win the remaining games that we are favored in and finish off with 6 wins, albeit not what I hoped for to start the year, I would consider it to be a step in right direction in the grand scheme of things
MSU is 2-0 and beat Northwestern.
This is why the game concerns me the most. Mel out coached Frost twice. When we had the game won. Both times...
If MSU wins next week, 5 or 6 of our last 8 opponents will most likely be ranked when we play them (MN maybe if they beat CU and are 4-1 when we get them). We will be favored versus NW and Purdue at home but we will have to pull 2 upsets to get to 6-6 assuming we take care of business in those two home games. Will be interesting. I have loved the play of the defense so far but the run D will really be tested the next 2 weeks and they may be on the field an awful lot.
