ND lost at home to Marshall and Stanford (IIRC a team that hadn't beaten a P5 in like the last 10-11 games). Cuse is at home so they can win that. BC is winnable as well. The others left on the schedule are anywhere from 50-50 to they likely lose IMO. Realistically, I think 1 or 2 more is possible. If they were to lose 6 in a row, that would just totally take off any shine they have currently. It's just an okay season at best given the start.
We scored 16 against Temple and 10 against Iowa. Iowa is 7th in total defense. SU is 8th. Where would all these points come from?
I mean, it could be that when we were up visiting, the food and experience with that place stood out against the otherwise bleak and forbidding environment. But I still order a couple of their BBQ sauces from the internet, so it couldn't have been that bad.
Again… You are underestimating our D…. What makes you so confident they would score??
I like our defense but Iowa is dead last in total offense, Temple is 126th and Nebraska is 56th. What great offenses have we shut down? It doesnt matter if they had our schedule or not. No one cares about that. They care about wins. Not who we lose to.
You are changing the discussion…
I don’t care about them being undefeated. My point is that you use other games scores to determine results of a game but don’t factor in what we have done. We don’t truly know how good or bad their opponents are. How can you look at scores and determine how equal two teams are?
I am not using just scores… I’ve watched them.. I’m looking at thier stats and our stats and looking at them in context of who we both have played.
Getting close to my prediction. And I also stand by my last line in that post. When Cuse loses again next week which of the idiot posters on this board will have the balls to say they know nothing about football???
SIAP -- I can't help but notice that since beating NC State, they've lost five in a row. So they're 6-5. We'd probably do at least as well against their schedule. It will be interesting to see how they do against Boston College on Saturday.
My prediction was 6-8 for them and for Kansas too despite the fast starts of both teams. Didn’t change the low end of my ranges despite 5-0/6-0 starts.
Programs like them, if you get 6 wins it’s a solid season but if they lose 6 in a row that takes some luster off.
We get it, you've been gloating about a 6-8 win prediction this entire thread when they already had 5 wins. Congratulations you're a guru who gave himself a 3 game +/- WOW!!!!
It's not a gloat nor is it meant to be, I could give a flying freak but it's continuously brought up eh well they lost so many games in a row, see it's nothing special. If people want to keep putting down these accomplishments of other schools similar to our status, I'm gonna say it's not completely unexpected or surprising and was in the range of possible outcomes even when these teams were undefeated on the cusp of much more. I I was even questioned by another poster in one of these threads why still keeping it at 6 when a team is at 5 or 6 already. The point is it's not completely surprising or unexpected and should be just taken for what it is, a respectable satisfactory season.
I mention these underdog programs and their accomplishments often. Just did it in the hope thread. I like underdogs (like most probably do) and I see us in them. We can achieve things too.
