Illinois, yes I agree they win 5-6 this year, maybe a bowl?
Michigan St, always tough! Defense better than last year? Hard to believe but looks that way. Injuries on O took them out last year.
Nebraska, very easy schedule but I'm not jumping on that bandwagon. Martinez the best QB, hmmmm??
Penn St, there is a reason so many transferred last year, younger players are better! Very young team with talent, watchout 2020.
Wisconsin, question is will they/can they reload on O-line and linebacker. O-line maybe yes, linebacker I think they take a step back.
Indiana, watching these guys. Just a feeling they have a good year, maybe 7 wins. Catching MSU and UM with look ahead games to Ohio St.
Ohio State, suddenly Buckeyes not so relevant anymore with Urban and Haskins gone. DON'T BET ON IT. Ryan Day knows how to coach and has a load of weapons.

I found Illinois at a 3 game win total in 5 Dimes back in June. I jumped on that one pretty quick. They are now at 4.5, which is a tad too high now. I think they can win 4 games, even with Lovie. But I would hate to push that total to 5 or 6 games. Illinois has a very favorable schedule to win 4 games this year. But then things get tough. They went 4-8 last year, and if Lovie doesn't show any growth with a more experienced and deeper team he'll be gone after this season....I got Nebraska back when they were at 8 wins (now 8.5). They have 7 games that I feel pretty good about, which means they'll have to win at least one of their tossup games (at Purdue, at Minny, Wisky).

Liking Tulsa the more I look at them not for the 4.5 RSW (3-9 LY) but for the potential surprise ... Golden Hurricane O has been more like a Golden Shower O the last couple years, so awful especially at QB... plugging in Zach Smith from Baylor this year and this kid has the chops to play 10 starts at Bay and ripped Oklahoma '17 for 460yds 4TD's 0INTs for 66% and that's before Sooners dropped to the bottom in pass efficiency, Sooners D gave up only 1 other 400+pass game that year (JT Barret went 54%, 183 0-1 wk 2...) also lit up Boise St in the bowl game Fr yr in '16 (72% 375 3-1) huge win as a TD dog, easily BSU's worst pass D performance of the season... so QB unit can only be improved and maybe really improved ... bringing back substantially all the rest of their yards and 8 back on a sneaky good D last year that never got much attention ... OL a big concern w 3 All conf departing so leaves some questions there but really the only unit that's not looking better or maybe much better this year..
The prospectus on them is in the neighborhood of LY tougher schedule and public perception seems to drive that, projected last in division ... but barring them never getting the OL to work Monty could really start punching teams again this year ... ATS wise (6-6 LY) they should be flyin pretty low after Mich St's DL has a field day week 1.. I'll take a peek week 2 @ SJSU's D improvement and if that's not there then might be worth a shot, Monty pretty good as a road dog 2-4 LY but 11-7 overall in that spot... We'd then hope Okey State O is just too much for these guys Wk 3 so maybe another chance Wk 4 home vs Wyoming who realllly struggled LY vs better QB's and their D or O power could drop significantly with their roster shakeup this year .. Should know by then what this team's potential is as they go into a well placed bye week before conference... can't imagine anyone's thinking too highly of them at point either..... not predicting they'll rip it this season but a lot of potential improvement is high and possibly a sneak peek while these guys are still flyin low, we'll see... - Good luck!

Still undecided, but the players I have spoke with about it (which are the guys that hoop) prefer Dom Johnson, who has similar size as Tyree and a similar skill set and has been on the basketball roster the last 2 years. Whoever it is is going to be handing it off 2 out of 3 times. I expect the Bulls to run more than 90% of teams.
By the way, the Triple Gym is worse than it has ever been. Luckily for me, the women's team has invited me to scrimmage with them a few times a week. They are probably going to be way better than expected (3 European recruits and a Rochester recruit who is really good) Also, the men's team is looking alright, but they are going to be a little small.
That's good to hear ...Praying it's not Vantrese ...Went to the spring game and he couldn't throw an accurate 5 yd pass ...Warming up he threw 3 in a row 10 feet over the QB coaches head .....
Run run run sounds great to me ....Those backs are going to be filthy .....
Monster DT Eddie Wilson could have a monster impact ....
I've all but given up on Hopping unless it with my kids ...The league by my house was cancelled for kids showing up to fight over things other kids posted on Instagram ....
Sweet must be fun scrimmaging with the women's team ...Hopefully you can teach them your skills = shoot with both hands , box out , contest every shot , clog the passing lanes , and develop a hook shot.....
BEST OF HEALTH, HAPPINESS,WEALTH, BLESSINGS and LUCK TO ALL !!
