Make note that we don't play Purdue or Illinois on back to back nights, I guess that part of the schedule isn't quite finalized yet.

I'm going with 11 - 7. Could easily do better but I'm expecting some off-nights. And hoping for some upsets too!
 
I'm still at 14-4. I don't think we lose at home. Losses at Ohio State, Michigan State and 2 out of the following 4 road games...Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois and Indiana.

i don't think Iowa has won at Illinois in the last 25 years or something like that. maybe this year we break that, but i'm not counting on that.
 
12-6

Losses at wiscy, at Ohio state, at Illinois, at MSU, two losses come from the home games against MSU, wiscy, Ohio state or road games at mich and Indiana
 
Nebby- W@Wisky-W, I will be at this game so I will not predict a lossNU- W, they suck@OSU- LMinny- W@Michigan- W@NU- WMSU- W@Illini- L, I don't know when the last time Iowa won in C-U was.OSU- LMichigan- W@PSU- W, they will upset somebody at home, it won't be Iowa@Indy- WWisky- W, Active Vadger's head explodes@Minny- WPurdue- W@MSU- L, senior day in EL, I actually think this one could get uglyIllini- W14-4
 
Forget the numbers!, Wild Bull says Pfffft, easy win over Wisconsic.......hahahha;) . Let me say with no injuries, 7-1 before Feburary. I think Iowa become more dangerous team as the B1G season progress, wait a minute!
Are we playing Purdue two days straight?:confused:
 
14-4. Losses at MSU, Illinois, OSU and either Minnesota or Penn State (calling my shot on the potential trap game loss).

I think we beat Wisconsin this week, and I can't wait for that game to tip off.

That's why I included them as a potential loss. We should absolutely kill them inside and they shouldn't make enough threes to beat us...but see your post for the rest of the story.
 
I think 14-4 is very realistic. Going undefeated at home is very realistic.

Winning Sunday at Wisconsin is very realistic. Most of their fans will be eating cheese curds, drinking spotted cow and watching the Packers on Sunday.

I'd be disappointed with anything worse than 12-6
