Ridiculous take.

Ridiculous take. 

 

I certainly agree, but we'll see won't we?  

 

I will say that if Locksley can't win at least 5 games with this roster then he ain't the guy.

Sept. 27th: Penn State
Oct. 5th: at Rutgers
Oct. 12th: at Purdue
Oct. 19th: Indiana
Oct. 26th: at Minnesota
Nov. 2nd: Michigan
Nov. 9th: at Ohio State
Nov. 23rd: Nebraska
Nov. 30th: at Michigan State

 

Aside from at Ohio State, I'd say they have at-least a 30% chance in all of the other games. 
Many of them are in that 45/55 range imo.  (Slight under dogs, slight favorites.)  Games that can easily go either way. 

 

Penn State and Michigan should be favored, but MD beating either one would not be shocking. 
At Michigan State probably has Sparty as a 65% favorite, but again... not shocking if they win there either. 


​Yep, definitely better win at-least 5 games. Way too much talent not to do so. 
Certainly sucks they lost to Temple. That's a swing game. 

I would have said before that game that MD should win... probably 60% favorite. But same thing in reverse, not shocking they lost. 
Just sucked that they came out flat, and then gave themselves opportunities but couldn't capitalize.

It's all about that 4-game stretch after the Penn State game. They ought to be able to win all of those. Rutgers is trash, Purdue is 1-2 and hasn't looked good, Indiana is the toughest of the 4 but they're at home, and Minnesota has barely beaten South Dakota State, Fresno State, and Georgia Southern this year.

 

Obviously you don't dismiss all 4 of those opponents (especially Purdue and Minnesota on the road), but they're all very winnable games.
