With the exception of MSU, Iowa, and UM....

[Fullbacksympathy]

I don't think any win we have this year in the B1G should be considered an upset.  Yes, road wins are harder, but we should be competitive in almost all of those games.

 

I see a whole bunch of dead even teams after those three (no, I don't consider Wisconsin an elite team).

 

I can't believe I'm saying this:  We have middle of the pack B1G caliber talent.  Now we just have to accept it and break through our mental glass ceiling.  

 

Pretty incredible recruiting job by Miles.  Consider the asswhooping we gave OSU when they rolled out three seniors and two juniors in their starting lineup to our freshman and three sophomores.  I was a little cynical (as I deserve to be, being an NU fan) at the beginning of the year, but we're going places.  Obviously, there's an outside shot at anything this season, but we're tough at home--very tough, so I'm simply enjoying watching our young guys take it to upperclassmen around the conference.

 

We can say "wait til next year" as we have always done, but I think there's some real substance behind it now.  It might be the last time we say it for awhile.

Uh, check me on this, but I don't think we have wins against MSU, Iowa or UM.

Are you talking in the past? We did beat Iowa I know before.

The OP was about wins this year.

I think the OP was trying to say that we should not be surprised with a win against any but those three teams in the B1G this year.

 

Obviously a win against Iowa would be a huge surprise since we don't play them again this year (barring a meet up in the B1G Tourney)

Somewhat OT, but is there one of those tourney scenario generators like there was for the Big 12? I liked messing around with that thing.

I second this... Finding our way to get the 1 seed was a challenge!!

MSU w/o Payne & Dawson is not an insurmountable ballgame... and Miles really likes the matchup w/ Mythagain.

I have a really good feeling about that Michigan game. I wanna get tickets for that one
