There was a typo with the 'offensive line'. "The problem is the massive loss of all the defensive stars including Adrian Clayborn and Karl Klug off the offensive line,..."
How high do you really think we are? Our starting QB is gone. Our defensive front is gone. Our safety is gone. Our career leading WR is gone. We have 1 legit RB on the roster. I think we should be lucky to be included in the top 50 right now.
We go to ISU and we add Pitt to our non-conference schedule. Tenn Tech and ULM should be cake walks but somebody royally messed up putting two 'tough' games back-to-back.
We go to PSU, Minny, Purdue and Nebraska. We have no bye week once conference play starts.
FYI - PSU gets a break following their game against Illinois and just before they play Nebraska. Michigan gets a break in the middle of October following MSU and before Purdue. Nebraska gets a break after the game against OSU and before Minny. MSU gets a break following their game against OSU and before they play Michigan. Do you see a pattern here?
Personally I think it's total **** that we don't get a bye week during conference play and almost (if not all) other Big10 teams get one. Somebody needs to get their head out of their *** in the scheduling department.
