Seeking6 Posted September 19, 2020 Report Share Posted September 19, 2020 I feel like I need a daily reminder on what's on tv for sports. At 10AM EST this morning the Big Noon Kickoff show will start and they will unveil Big 10 schedules followed by IU at Purdue from 2019. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted September 19, 2020 Report Share Posted September 19, 2020 Week 1 Penn St at IU Week 2 IU at Rutgers Week 3 Michigan at IU.... Week 4 IU at MSU So far I like the balance. Week 5 IU at Ohio St. Week 6 Maryland at IU At this point we know what life is like in the East....but great balance. The season can't get away from us. Worse case at this point I see 3-3. Knock off one of Penn St or Michigan and 4-2. We know Purdue is still left. I'm assuming we'll have a crossover at Iowa or at Wisconsin. Week 7 IU at Wisconsin as expected Week 8 assuming Purdue at IU... Week 9 is the crossover weekend. Boy I'd love to get Illinois or Nebraska in week 9 in Bloomington. I see a tough but fair schedule. No stretches of 2-3 losses in a row. 4-4 before week 9 but get one of Penn St or Michigan I see and we're looking at 5-3 with a game probably vs Illinois or Nebraska if they survive.

Seeking6 Posted September 19, 2020 Report Share Posted September 19, 2020 Nebraska wanted football so bad? They wanted to sue? I'd say at Ohio St, home with Sconny, at Northwestern, and home with Penn St is a pretty tough start for Frosty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No friendly schedule for Michigan either. If there's such a thing as being treated fair in the East....I think we did pretty good. I mean Ohio St, Michigan, Penn St, Wisconsin are 4 teams who will probably spend time in top 10 this year if not all season.....but at least we have 4 very winnable games. 2 shots at upsets (Michgan/Penn St) and we should be 4th in East for week 9 crossover.

I have us minimally 4-4 with a strong likelihood of winning crossover game in week 9 to get to 5 wins. We've been so close vs Penn St it feels like. First game of year....we have almost what? 85% of returning starters back. That first game on paper has the makings of getting that first big win vs top 10 ranked team.

We bring back 82% of our "2 deep" on both sides of the ball combined from the bowl game. Then you add in guys like Ellis, Robbins, and Sanguinetti. Two of those being 4 star guys. Bring back the punter, LSer, KO specialist. New place kicker this year.. who I think will at minimum be above average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With what I've watched in college and pros so far with new teams trying to mesh is average to below average play while getting reps in with new guys. Bringing back this much cohesion has to be worth something. I've had a long running hatred for Penn St for years....nothing would make me happier to get that first one.

There is NOTHING I dislike more than PSU football... and that includes ND football, UK basketball, Russia, etc. PSU football is scum to me.. no one will convince me otherwise.
