Draft Kings O/U win totals are out

[scarletred]

Meechigan 10.5
Bucknuts 10.5
Penn St 9.5
Wisconsin 9
Ioway 7.5
Maryland 7
Illinois 7.5
Gophers 7.5
Huskers 6
Sparty 5.5
Boilers 5.5
Indiana 3.5
NW 3.5

You’d think Herky would have a higher win total without NO tOSU and Michigan and Rutgers as their cross division rival game..

 

[litespeedhuskerfan]

On one hand, they are projecting us to win twice as many game as last year...on the other hand, that ain't saying much.

Without looking at Michigan's schedule, the over for them looks good.

NW usually bounces back from a bad season, but I wouldn't touch it.

Under on Wisky is probably my best bet on that list...I'll call it my 5star lead pipe lock. (Ever notice on those gambling shows that they have like 5 or 6 categories, and whatever catagory does best for that weekend, is the one they brag about the next weekend?)

6 is awfully low considering the competition

 

[scarletred]

Gophers lose the first game with having to play both tOSU and Michigan plus having to win in Chapel Hill I don’t see them winning 7 games..

Think Penn St will be under 9.5 and Wisconsin won’t win 9 games either..

 

[SuperBigFan]

6 is awfully low considering the competition

Yep

There won't be a game where the spread is over 10 except for Michigan.

Basically coin flip games.

Some other place I seen that predicted O/U had Nebraska at 6.5…

I think that is the proper O/U myself with a lot of new faces that may be starting especially on defense..

 

[Redmich]

Bill Busch says we should be WAY over 6 wins …. Echoing what some of us have been saying

he knows how easy it is to scheme against these non-explosive offenses led by middling (at best) passers

with a top duo returning on the outside in Newsome/Hartzog, I think DC White is going to absolutely feast

 

[husk_powr04]

Obviously, it's tough to know what's ahead with this team BUT I'd take the overs.

Winning 6 of 7 home games against N Illinois, La Tech, NW, Purdue, Maryland, and Iowa.
Then 1 road win in Boulder gets us to 7.

Optimism is hard to come by after the last 20 years though. Other the Michigan, I don't see any reason that we won't be in a lot of games this year barring an injury to Sims. If he goes down, we instantly are a very different team without a solid backup. Maybe Draft Kings is taking him being injury prone into consideration!!!

 

[HankMoody78]

If Sims gets injured we don't win more than 4. I'd take the under and plan on a push.

 

[Baxter48]

Wisconsin won’t win 9 games more like 6-6

Why do people keep acting like Bo didn't win 9/10 games each season?

 

[JabroniBlvd]

Can we run the ball consistently with our running backs? And can our d-line hold up? That will determine if we can win 6+ games.

Wins from 2022.

THIS!!

I am so sick of the 20 years bullsh!t. The 09 & 10 teams were quite good. Notice I said good. Not great. Some of the other teams were pretty good too under Bo. Did he manage to step on his dick at the worst times to make a.season simply good and not great? Yes. We were good and relevant though.

 

[c3o]

I feel good about next year but we don’t have a guaranteed win on the schedule. These kids are too used to being losers

iowa won 8 last year and went under their 7.5 number for the regular season

Wrong it only goes by regular season..

duh. read my post again

I responded to a poster who said they won 9 last year

Seen yours before hand sorry.

 

[king_kong_]

Seen yours before hand sorry.

mine also said they went UNDER 7.5 last year in the regular season

 

[anon_umk0ifu6vj6zi]

Would probably be higher if the worst AD and worst coach in school history didn’t leave such a mess. Gonna take at least 20 years (by your standards op) to recover from the mess. Gotta tear it down all the way to the foundation, then slowly build back. Brick by brick and such

 

[TarheelHuskerFan]

Even if Sims goes down, with good game planning and coaching, we can win games being run heavy. Other offenses (less Michigan) arent going to put up a Ton of points and we have a deep talented running back room.

 

[BoilerN]

I'm hammering the over in Iowa and Purdue, under on Wisconsin and Illinois.

 

[Husker4real]

I have been taking the Under on this for about 8 straight years.

I really like the Over this time.

 

[Husker4real]

Just saw that Over is -120; while Under was +100, so you’re paying extra for the Over.

 

[scarletred]

If you were to look close enough he was wrong on Maryland, Minnesota, Michigan and Wisky too.

 

[Redmich]

Colorado line is 3.5

BetOnline has us 18 pt dogs vs Mich fwiw. Seems a little high to me.

Other than the our first 2 games of the year, all the rest means nothing not knowing injuries and out comes of earlier games that were played..

Sherman and the young guys are a step up in athleticism off the edge. Does White have enough interior depth to avoid getting pushed around by B1G Olines in the 4th quarter of games?

Three conference title games in four years, then 7 out of 8 losing seasons after Bo is deemed insufficient.

Well we’re going to find out real fast in that first game in Minneapolis how that 4thQ will play out..

Fleck likes to get a lead and drain the play clock inside 4 or 5 seconds.. it’s imperative that we have the lead heading into the 4Q..

Oòooooooo

How many games does Rhule usually win in year one?

Rhule has said his first Nebraska team has more talent his first year than when he was at Temple or Baylor…

Good enough for ya.

when you have the luxury of playing press man on the outside with little fear of opposing QBs beating you consistently, you can dedicate more men to cover those warts

I’m pretty sure the teams we play have a lot more talent than the opponents of Temple / Baylor.

5-7 (splitting the two toss up games)

Team has to prove we can run the ball. If we can't, and it doesn't seem like we have done it well before with the same OL and same running back lineup, it will make NU very one dimensional, with a potentially less accurate passer trying to throw downfield to move the chains. 5-7 is being generous from where I sit.
