Big 10 preseason media poll
- Thread starter HBK4life
- Start date
Purdue is obviously way too low. Boiler will be here shortly to tell us all about their great coach and their star players who chose to stay instead of taking the NIL elsewhere.
Preseason polls usually is based what had happened the year before and who you have returning…
I putting money on Clarkeyes won’t end up 5th..
Were playing 5 of the top 9..

Both teams lost a lot, that's for sure. Michigan probably recruited better so it might not sting as much.

Weird to look at that list and then trying to wrap my brain around that being the B1G conference.
...and 8 seems pretty generous at this time

They claim a fake one at 8-1-1 back in the 50s or something stupid.😒
Yea, well I would like to claim 1902 and 1983 for Nebraska too..
I think we would have 11 if we did it the Iowa way.
we’d have like 50 if we did it the iowa way. Winning 80% of our games has been done many times
We're also playing 3 of the bottom 4 and 1 of the top 4. The schedule is favorable.
Finishing 8th would be good based on the schedule the team plays in conference. Would like to see the team finish higher but until the season is done, 8th is a good starting point.
MI's defense should still be really good this year. Not sure who their qb is
We'll see how they do without the Harbs and JJ. Big question marks going into the season.
Thought Purdue was a little too high
Taking it a step further, we play 6 of the bottom 7.
Huskers play 4 teams abve us, the #1, 5, 6, 7. And 5 teams, the #9, 13, 15, 17, 18 below us.
FWIW, the Huskers have the 3rd most returning starters in the country.
Don't forget the opposing QB's now have communication in their helmet, that might slow down MU's defense just a touch as well.
Too low. Put Nebraska down at #5. #6 at the worst.
what has been done to deserve that. We've ended up at the bottom for like the last 6 years.
Nothing has been done to deserve that. It's where I think we'll land.
Yep! He will be here to let us know how they have like 4 NFL guys on defense and 6 NFL guys on offense and blah blah blah...
He is the best and the worst at the same time!
Indiana may surprise a few higher. The Minn kids might quit on Fleck. If we beat Wisconsin/iowa we could be in the 4/5 range, 12/13 if we lose.
Wisky is horrible
Iowa is horrible but that schedule sucks again
Indiana is going to suck (and quit)
Minny is quitting for sure.
Mostly agree, but our track record is what it is. If raiola and a couple more pieces get injured it's another mediocre year.
He can come back when iowa wins their 1st legitimate national championship.
Na. Not worth the fight because of how unknown the team is. I think they will be a lot better than last year. They won’t be last. Not sure how high they will get this year though. I think I’m going 5-7. Schedule is tough.
Iowa has a championship caliber defense. I think that is why they are rated so high.
We need USC to lose a couple games before we play them. Teams loaded with elite recruits tend to lose focus when a championship is unlikely.
