Big matchups tomorrow

[uihawk82]

There are not a lot of big games but some interesting matchups. Is Illinois really that bad, let's see them on the road.
Ore vs OSU and Iowa vs ISU are the two headliner games.
Will Indiana and Penix bounce back. After Penix was pulled from the game last week my son texted me that the hoosiers put their penix away. good stuff. I want IU to keep winning now to make that hawk smashdown look even better.

Is Wash. really bad, on paper Mich should clobber them so let's see what Jimmy H really has.
Minny, jNW, and Wisky should bounce back.

But Buffalo iirc has had a couple of good teams lately and would love to see them dump Frosty.

Anyone predicting any upsets here?

Nebraska is a 14 pt favorite, but I really think Buffalo can win that one straight up. If Nebraska does win, I'll be a bit surprised to see it happen by 2+ TDs.

nebraska's going down.

Buffalo is not Fordham.

I would be surprised if Nebraska lost this game at home. I'd be happy but still surprised.

I would LOVE to see an upset here, the crying from Nebby fans would be glorious.

Yeah Nebby has lost their share of games to less than stellar non-P5 and maybe old Div I-AA teams I guess now FCS teams

It has been awhile since the hawks lost to W MIch, C Mich and N Dakota ST so it does happen. We know that 2--7 W Mich loss was by a broken up and down team but the hawks should not have lost to C Mich and the next week win at Mich ST, really.

Just looked and Buffalo has been playing at about a 70%+ win rate the last 3 years. A very good team you cant sleep on. Which Martinez will show up??

Yeah, they've been on an absolute tear. New HC this year, though. Younger guy, will only be coaching his 2nd game.

If not for that, I would seriously consider putting money on Buffalo to cover (if not win straight up).

Still a major upset watch, though.
