2024 Big Ten Predictions: Who Captures The Big Ten?
Vložit
- čas přidán 30. 06. 2024
- Who will win the Big Ten? Which team will prove to be the toughest in the toughest conference in college football? We will answer these and many others in my updated 2024 Big Ten Football Predictions. This conference will be deeper than last year, but there is a clear hierarchy made up of Ohio State Football, Michigan Football, Penn State Football, and Oregon Football. You may walk away with some questions, such as: Why do you have Rutgers Football winning 10 games? How do you have the no-offense Iowa Hawkeyes reaching the 12-team CFP? What about Nebraska Football impresses you? If you think USC Football will be average in 2024, when will they improve? How can Wisconsin Football be a good team if they lose 5 games? Ask them in the comments and I will try to answer. We talk about all of this and more in this episode of College Football with Sam. Make sure to comment so I can interact with you and answer any questions you have!

I mean, the obvious one is that Michigan takes a step back and are a three loss team. I think Oregon goes in the first year and wins the big 10.
OSU goes undefeated or 1 loss to Oregon, either way they rematch in the conference title game with OSU winning. I will say beating a team like Penn St 9 consecutive years and will be at Happy Valley is tough but OSU does it.
Oregon goes undefeated or 1 loss to OSU or an upset somewhere else(that’s much less likely) or they could lose 2 games which is even more less likely. Penn St, Michigan, and USC battle it out for 3rd, 4th, and 5th. Michigan loses to Oregon and OSU, and maybe USC. Penn St loses to OSU, maybe USC and/or Wisconsin. Penn St loses 1 game to OSU or lose as many as 2-3. USC could lose 2 games to Michigan and Penn St, lose just 1 of those games or as many as 3 in the conference. Wisconsin or Iowa finishes 6th and the rest are up in the air. I can only predict the top 7
Put some respect on Michigan Football 🏈 We are the rainy national champions. In till we lose. We the Champions! Go Blue!
@@mattbunts7513 national champs*****
I can’t see Minnesota with no QB beating USC. USCs defensive line has gained 340 pounds in total and USC has 2 of CFBs Top 40 Asst Coaches on Defense who were Broyles Award finalist. Lincoln had his worst season ever out of multiple 11 wins seasons, conference titles and playoff appearances and we treating him like he’s Ghene Chizik or Ed Orgeron. I never thought USC would ever be underrated until now
No QB?
Can’t wait till they come to the Big House. We got a special Ass whipping for those candy ass west coast team. Soft as Hell. 😂Go Blue!
Can’t wait till they come to the Big House. We got a special Ass whipping for those candy ass west coast team. Soft as Hell. 😂Go Blue!
Minnesota offense is trash
@@andrewmueller9986 Darius Taylor and Daniel Jackson are dogs, besides that pretty much.
I'm looking forward to BIG 10 football! It should be great 👍
Same here!
Say what you want but this man does his homework.
Thank you! Yes indeed I do, and there is plenty more homework to do 😅, especially with fall camp coming quickly. Some of our predictions can be easily extinguished by fall camp.
And his homer work
I mean, he does do his homework for a lot of things, but he allows his phantom for Michigan to cloud his judgment, which takes away from all the work he does because he comes off as a homer
His analysis of teams that aren’t Michigan OSU or Nebraska (the big fanbases) is extremely lazy. Not sure he even read the basic beat writer stuff on these teams.
Home boy- Michigan in the NC game. Not a chance.
They got an easy draw (Iowa, which anyone I put in the CFP save for Liberty would beat. Miami, another very beatable team. Ohio State, who Michigan matches up decently to good against. And finally Georgia, who would probably crush Michigan due to matchups) and that defense is viewed by many including myself as one of the best in the country. Where I distance from others is my belief that the OL will be good. Michigan making the CFP run I am predicting them to make (for now) won't be half as impressive as the one they made last year. My prediction for Michigan could change for the worse when I release my next prediction video.
As a Nebraska fan, I’m flattered. As a Nebraska fan, I also know better.
He is bullish on Neb every year. Some year, he'll be right.
Good content Sam. I think USC will torch Minnesota and beat Wisconsin in a hard to predict game.
Thank you! I can see USC performing much better than I predict them to. It all depends on the genius they hired in D'Anton Lynn, and how much Lincoln Riley and Bennie Wylie had given him to work with.
Wisconsin is a toss up.
As an Ohio St. fan I think people are discounting the Chip Kelly factor and simply looking at player recruiting rankings for O-line. Chip Kelly teams have ran the ball effectively with less talent everywhere he has been. We will know more at the halfway point whether we can win it all or not, any projections at this point are purely speculation with so many unknowns on the offensive side of the ball. The defense will be elite though and could be one of the best ever.
I really hope Oregon proves you wrong this year. Would really mess with old school Big Ten fans if Oregon can win the conference in their first year.
And they'll crawl under rocks when they get rocked by B1G competition.
Penn State thought they would win a bunch of BIG 10 Championships too. Winning the BIG 10 now will be even more difficult.
@@sisco302 And they will.
@@armandhammer3782😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The way Oregon chokes in big moments it would be surprising.
I think Oregon would take FSU to the woodshed.
If the game was in autzen I might agree with you.
Oregon would hammer FSU
Doubt it.
@@armandhammer3782 one score to remember. 59-20. Go Ducks 🟡🟢
@@armandhammer3782Oregon would be a 10 point favorite
I don’t think Minnesota wins that USC game.
Kind of homered out with Michigan. I think on paper OSU is stacked and Oregon I just have to see it. Being a Husker fan I know it's tough switching conferences and winning at the highest level against new opponents and colder climates.
Oregon doesn’t play in the cold?
GBR! I hope we get that matchup against Texas. Most of us are still upset at that 09 B12 championship result. I also have us going 9-3 but with losses to USC, OSU, and take your pick between Iowa or Wisconsin.
GBR !
What kind of ass clown wants to play former big12 teams especially Texas..Oklahoma kicked our ass Colorado has been kicking our ass so I just don't get why put us through the misery until Nebraska would ever start winning on the field.
I agree with Iowa’s record (given Tim Lester puts some life in the Offense), but I still see our Offensive Ceiling at like #75 nationally. Unless there is some craziness in the top of the SEC, I don’t see us getting the nod from the committee. Appreciate the love though 🤣
I’m also not as high on Nebraska. If they do win 10 games then yeah beating them carries great significance
Interesting takes. Shocked at some of these schedules! Rutgers...?! Whoa
Yeah, Rutgers has an insanely easy schedule lol.
@@collegefootballwithsamRUTGAS playoff bound 🪓🪓🪓
Also Oregon is literally a smaller Ohio state(loaded with talent but chokes away big games. Maybe because of the QB play you give the edge to Oregon at home but id hold my breath against the returning Buckeye defense.
Michigan cheated.
Also Sam you just need to do better. There are 18 teams in the B1G and it’s pretty clear you only watch Michigan OSU and Nebraska.
Lots of this video watches like someone who doesn’t watch the games.
Oh please! You're not even close. And whose mascot is a duck anyway. Wowzer!
It probably has to do with viewer interest. He clearly makes more videos about teams that get more views so he is way more familiar with them. Can't really blame him tbh
Whine about it.
What exactly gives away that I only watch Michigan, Ohio State, and Nebraska? I watched more Penn State, Washington, and Michigan State Football than I did Nebraska Football last year. And yes, Michigan cheated, but saying it over and over again is redundant.
@@collegefootballwithsam ignoring the biggest cheating scandal in CFb history but reminding everyone that they won the National Champonship** every video is cute and convenient Walmart Wolverine behavior.
Mgoblog the channel.
I think we both know you didn’t do much research on IU or NW or UCLA or any other teams. Indiana’s analysis was limited to good trench play? Couldn’t be more obvious you didn’t watch any Indiana except maybe that Ohio State game and obviously @cheaters.
You can go in to the rivals website and read the articles on each team. It would probably take 30 minutes to get a good summary of the off season, another 30 minutes to read the game summaries of each B1G game for each school.
They don’t get you clicks but you also clearly put no effort into teams that aren’t already big brand so the people do check you out aren’t coming back. This channel is basically Maze tinted glasses the channel and overhyping Nebraska every chance you get for obvious reasons. I cant say I blame you but there is literally no reason for fans of the 15 other B1G schools to watch this channel. The analysis you give is so out of sync with the actual situation. It’s been that way almost every time I watch your stuff.
I think you’re Nebraska analysis is pretty spot on. You may be surprised at how loaded we are at TE and WR though. In Current format, Matt Rhule would’ve had Baylor and Temple in the playoffs in his time there. I see our ceiling at 11-1 only because the schedule isn’t that tough. And the only for sure loss I see is at Ohio st. I agree that we will beat Usc, they’re going to be very beat up by the time we play them and I think 1-1 split against Wisconsin and Iowa seems more than reasonable to end likely 10-2 and that would likely land us in playoffs. That’s best case and my high hopes, which I know can only take me so far 😂
In regards to the Power Rankings and the Mich assessment, there is no way they go 12-0 and will Mich will end up #2 in the Conf. You made a good point that they only return 5 starters, but we know Mich has plenty of talent. However, where I think your assessment falls short is that you don't adequately take into account the coaching change. If Harbaugh was the only coach leaving that would be one thing, but they also lost defensive coordinator Jesse Minter, defensive line coach Mike Elston and strength and conditioning coach Ben Herbert to the Chargers and when he didn't get the DC role Clinkscale (DB coach) left as well. So, all the key Def coaches had to be replaced. Also. don't underestimate the loss of Herbert on that staff as he is the voice the players hear in the off-season and we know how much coaches value their S&C coach. Then on top of all that, they don't have QB locked in as a starter, any of which will be in their first year.
This is a well done list and thoroughly researched! I really appreciate your content. I only have two points where I slightly disagree:
1) Michigan State is in year one of a complete rebuild, they’ve got some good pieces and a really good coach, but they’re going to have to overcome so much internally I see them dropping a few games you wouldn’t expect them to drop. I’d have them at 13.
2) I have a lot of concerns with Oregon. Their offense really stalled against good defenses last year, and they’ve got a brand new quarterback in the system, and it’s the first year in a new conference that will have a lot of long travel times. They could absolutely prove me wrong, as they have so much talent, but I just think they’re going go get upset once or twice keeping them out of the conference championship game (that road Wisconsin game is gonna be brutal at the end of the year)
That’s what I’m saying. Oregon tends to crumble under pressure. You would hope this team is better than last seasons because OSU and Michigan are better than Washington and were better in my opinion last years as well
BUY RUTGERS STOCK NOW 🚀📈
Yes! Buy while Rutgers is on sale!
Die hard Oregon fan here - very solid video and analysis overall. My only disagreement is with your question marks on both sides of the ball. This was a defense that allowed 17 ppg to the most potent offensive league in the pac12 and they will be significantly better with more depth, especially in the secondary which is where lack of depth showed in the Washington games..
In regards to offense, I understand the question of if they’ll be able to go toe to toe against more formidable defenses but I think with their weapons, scheme and extremely balanced attack, they could grind out a 21-17 type of win if need be but also put up 50+.. as long as they don’t get behind in the chains I expect them to be one of the most efficient offenses this year
30 percent of experience returning for TTUN but they have THE experience to make a playoff run? How does that make sense
Yeah completely lost me at that point.
Rutgers is going to realize why no one cares in minnesota that athan left. He has a strong arm, but no accuracy and can’t trust him
Kaliakmanus is replacing Gavin Wimsatt, the least accurate QB in the entire FBS. Plus, he'll be reunited with Rutgers OC Kirk Schirocca, the man who recruited him for Minn, and helped AK to his best season. Rutgers will be a ground and pound offense, so even a reasonably accurate QB will do well enough to win..
@@Tedisntakidanymore Minnesota always focuses on the run as well, but it’s tough to win when your qb is going 12/27 with 150 yards and an int. He was brutal to watch, but if anyone can help it’s Kirk. Could end up wrong and hopefully he gets better, but really happy to never see him throw a pass for Mn again
Minnesota beatung USC and Maryland? You giving them too much credit
Undefeated Ohio state vs penn st in the conference championship
Lmao bro said Penn State
@@Potus_313they don’t play oregon or michigan so they definitely can they’re annually a top Big Ten team.
@@kev614 they play USC and Wisconsin on the road and and OSU. They losing at least 2 of those games
@@Potus_313 they own wisconsin and they’re gonna be favored over USC. they’re more likely to lose to West Virginia than either of those teams. and they have a chance against us though we own them so idk
Who would win the second round of that matchup?
losing to fsu in the playoffs for the ducks is dirty work sam
Do u have Michigan in the CFP champshp game bcuz of all the 3star players on the team or bcuz of all the 3-asterisk season players they have?
@SatansShart We didnt cheat, we develop! Cope! Rent free! Soft! Dynasty!
Buckeyes is going undefeated
I actually considered picking them to go 13-0. However, I think Oregon is going to bring it in Autzen stadium and with their trench play they can potentially push around OSU. I have done weeks and months worth of homework, but there is still a little more to be done, so maybe I will have them going 13-0 in my next round of predictions.
@@collegefootballwithsam the only loss would be to Oregon they have better QB play and the offense line are defense will use a lot of games defense for us is 2021 Georgia mixed with last year's Michigan defense OSU is Michigan and Georgia total team we took the blueprint
Does your rally skirt have blue and maize pleats?
Keep your sexual preferences to yourself please.
Iowa will not lose just 1 game. Iowa will struggle hard this year. I think Iowa will have at least 4 losses minimal.
Wildest take on this list for me is Texas missing the CFP. Still, #GoBlue! 〽️
I think it's fair to say the Big 10 is the top conference this year. That said, I do not see Michigan beating OSU in the Playoff. Although untested, OSU had the best transfer portal results this season. Lose to Oregon, possibly. Other than that, that's all. I really think the will make the NC this year.
Underrated NorthWestern I think they will do better than people thinks. Go Bucks
Just curious, I saw you had 3 losses in Oregon’s floor. Assuming Michigan gives them their 2nd loss, who do you think is most likely to give them their 3rd loss?
I think Wisconsin is the most likely to give the Ducks their third loss season.
@collegefootballwithsam why do you believe Wisconsin is going to beat the ducks? When was the last time the badgers beat UO? And who on that team is threatening them offensively?
You’re drinking the Michigan Kool-Aid buddy lol
Right??... All new O-line, new QB. Completely new coaching staff... I don't get it.
@@galvanaut7119 he has those rose colored glasses on from being a Michigan fan
You guys are brainwashed
@@DuckFanDane they literally deny the cheating happened and also approve of it happening at the same time. Worst fan base in all of sports.
Maybe I am drinking the Kool-Aid, but people (many Michigan fans) said the same thing about Ohio State when they had a new head coach and they got better. Michigan of course will not even be close to 2019 Ohio State because they lose a ton of players, but if you believe that Jim Harbaugh built anything close to a machine at Michigan (and the evidence says he did) than Michigan will simply regress compared to last season, not collapse and be out of the CFP picture before the OSU game. I will admit that I am higher on Michigan than probably everyone except some other Michigan fans though.
Sleeping on the boilers!! 7-5, 8-4 with upset over either ND or Oregon! 🚂⚒️
Keep sleeping on the ducks. Their going to take the conference in their first year😂😂
I'll take the under on iowa for a million
It is very possible that they win less than 11 games, but their betting over under is only 8.5. I have to take the over on that line.
@collegefootballwithsam I'll still take the under. They always barely squeak by on alot of games. Their offense will be about the same as last year. They won't have their punter for field position, no cooper to score on d and punt returns, no play makers on offense, and cade will pretty much be guaranteed to get hurt within the first few games. 7-5
Same here sign me up
They will make the playoffs
@@orangecrush4362 nope
Rumors the cheaters will find out the NcAAs findings here next week or the week after. Also rumors are they don’t have a great way to punish most of the staff becuase the staff all left.
Embarrassing.
Need to vacate 3 years of wins to preserve the integrity of this sport
💀💀💀
@@hfreddy127 🔨 🕰️
Oh just shut up. B1G is going to punish the DEFUNCT PAC TENNERS. 🤣
Michigan is going to be good but not 14-2 good. They are going to take a step back. They lost so much including thier coach. I know they did good "without Harbaugh" in games but he still coached them until 1 second before the game. 9-3 is my prediction and missing the playoff.
Ive liked some of your videos. This one though, I dont agree with. B1G doesnt play offense outside of Ohio St and maybe Michigan. The B1G has overinflated defensive stats because of it. Oregon is going to be fine.
We will just have to see. You could be totally right or I could be. The truth is probably somewhere in the middle, which is why I picked Oregon to still cruise through Big Ten play and have a great shot at going to Indy rather than having them go 10-2/9-3.
@@collegefootballwithsam I guess I don't understand Oregon being ranked in the power rankings you have behind the Michigan or Penn State.
@@OnlyNikeFans It's a suspicion of mine that losing Bo Nix, Bucky Irving, Jackson Powers-Johnson, and Troy Franklin, along with bringing in a ton of portal help at DB, might result in a slight step back for Oregon. Also, playing a much tougher schedule than last year could wear at Oregon, but I think physically Oregon is built to have success long term in the conference. I could be wrong though. After all, these are preseason rankings which means there is a lot of speculation built in.
@@collegefootballwithsam I argue against what your saying though as far as schedule goes. I look at what Oregon played last season and what they're playing this season and view that as much easier. Outside of Michigan and Ohio State the rest of the season feels almost like penciled in wins. Don't get me wrong the trip to Wisconsin late in November is going to be a tough one especially if Oregon has injuries going into the game. But Oregon played a much more difficult schedule in my opinion last year and it's the perception of the PAC 12 that hurt Oregon more than anything. PAC 12 has always been underrated and undervalued. PAC 12 always cannibalized itself almost year in and year out and it wasn't because the whole conference was bad. Everyone just acted as if the conference was bad because the elite teams couldn't go undefeated. Oregon will be right in the mix with Ohio State every single year for the top of the B1G.
That's what they were saying last year in the national championship game
I think we are headed towards 11-1 Oregon Ohio state and PSU.
It’s bold, but I think those are the best 3 teams in the big ten and it will show.
Michigan is very good too especially on defense but their schedule is hard. Texas Oregon and Ohio State all on the schedule plus west coast to Washington not easy. USC can be tricky but trenches miss match. I don’t think they win 10 in 2024. If they do Sherrone Moore is coach of the year.
Not buying Penn State
@@JoeMiskowski-ng7eb it’s not so much that Penn State is the best team or one of the three best teams in the league and this great team, but they have a really easy schedule
@@DuckFanDanepenn just doesnt the offense to beat a team like OSU and Oregon
I agree somewhat, I think OSU is the best team and Oregon is no 2 in the Big 10(18) OSU might lose at Oregon but if they do or not they rematch in the conference title game with OSU winning. I think no 3 in the conference is a battle between Penn St, Michigan, and USC. Those 3 teams between each other could finish between 3, 4, or 5. I think Penn St is most likely to finish 3rd, Michigan most likely 4th or 5th, USC most likely 4th or 5th. Michigan loses to Oregon and Ohio State but could also lose to USC but that’s kind of hard to see Michigan losing 3 homes games including a loss to Texas. Michigan should beat Washington in Seattle. I think Penn St probably beats USC. Oregon may go undefeated or 1 loss, same with OSU, but OSU takes the conference title
@@DuckFanDane this is the point. PSU does not play Michigan or Oregon and they have a shot with buckeyes at home. I think they can win the big ten truly. I do think Oregon and Ohio State are better but it’s not by a huge margin.
Missouri
I'll take Oregon over FSU on the road or not - FSU is going to struggle with their QB play against Oregon's D and the Ducks O will score above their average after a slate of B10 conference games; Oregon by +10... tOSU and Georgia are the only two teams capable of keeping Oregon from winning its first NC - and against either it'll be a close, hard-fought game decided in late in the 4th...
I might be a Michigan hater but they’re not getting to the Natty 😂
Iowa in the playoffs? 👀
I know what I’d like to see - Oregon getting pounded by Michigan and Ohio State.
Good luck!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sam I usually like your content what the hell was this?
What was wrong with this video?
I think Michigan beats Ohiostate in regular season and loses in the playoffs
And Oregon beats Michigan by 14 haha. Bro this is so biased
Wait. So you have both Texas and Ol Miss out of the playoffs. I'd say at least 1 of them makes it.
Ole Miss could very well be in my next set of CFP predictions, but Texas certainly won't.
I don't know what is crazier, Michigan in the National Championship, or Texas not making the playoffs lol.
UCLA is a bowl team 💯
They could be a bowl team, I will just have to see it before I believe it.
And 5 bigten teams in the playoffs???? NOT happening. Be lucky to get 3. Michigan going 7-5 will lose opener to Fresno State.
I have Michigan going 10-2 losses to Texas and Oregon and beating the Ohio State and the rest of the schedule are their remaining wins
You have Michigan going to the National Championship game? You’re being a total Michigan Homie on that.
I think it's a real possiblity.

UW as 8? Ah, no.
Curious.
Oregon plays at Wisconsin
Michigan is going under 9. Might even get punk’d by Fresno who knows but one of the B1G middle pack teams will sneak one on then. New staff new coach new players.
you’re such a loser😂
Hell no now you ain’t even being realistic 😂
No chance.
@@chillzzz3513 Vegas has them at 9 wins. Not even unrealistic.
Michigan will be a 2 loss team if they can beat UO in November…but i think they go 9-3…and if UO beats OSU on Oct 12th, Oregon will go undefeated, popping the dream of all Big10 fans that they had elite defenses, not because their offenses were average, but because their offenses were scared of those defenses, which forced them to scheme conservatively. I believe UO disproves that fallacy, and goes 12-0…if they beat OSU on Oct 12th. And yes, I’ll be at every UO home game, including the first OSU game, aka Oregon State, and the second OSU game on Oct 12th.
If Oregon does lose in Indy, and goes 12-1 or 11-2, Oregon will still host, since their Big10 championship game loss counts less than the 3rd place team that wasn’t good enough to make the game. They’ve already shown a precedence with TCU staying at #4 after losing to K State, and because they value the conference champion, by giving them a top4 bye, regardless of playoff rank…they have to also value the team that also goes to that game…as long as the game is close. If it’s a blow out like Wisconsin in 2014, it won’t help. But they have to value both teams, so they’ll fight to get to that game, and not try and lose to be in 3rd place. Everything in this 12 team playoff is built to reward winning, and making the conference championships. They are building incentives to win, and incentives to make a conference championship game for a 2 place hosting.
So again, Oregon loses close, they still get the 5th through 8th spot in the playoff. They will not put Michigan ahead of Oregon, and they definitely won’t put a weak runner up in the ACC ahead of the runner up in the Big 10…especially since they beat Ohio State, according to your thoughts of Oregon winning Oct 12th. And yes I agree we will win that game.
The weed in Oregon is strong same as Mich where it's legal you sky beagle
umich has a big surprise ready for oregon. dan lanning never even managed to win the pac 12
Well now since you know Oregon football and everything else in the world don't be surprised if or when Oregon loses 2. Games and maybe again to Washington making it 3 loses...
Oregon is overrated.
@@armandhammer3782 Yep, you should tell all the Ohio State players and fans. And all the Michigan players and fans. Get them all believing that before they prepare to play us. That’s also the best thing a Duck player, coach or fan can hear!
Bro is snorting coke Ryan day wants to keep his job he’s not loosing to a 7 win max Michigan team
Well I have Ryan Day earning a win over Michigan and going 13-2, so he is definitely not getting fired.
GBR!!!
UCLA 16 😂😂😂😂
Chip Kelly as an OC is a weak link?? Bro. That has become our strength
Nebraska has freshman qb
So hard to know what will happen in this situation. Raiola did look good in the spring game, but not all of the starting defense was out there. But the schedule starts out the best for NU in years with home games and lesser opponents to get him experience. So who knows, but at least we don't start out in conference on the road again.
Michigan is not making the championship
Pause on the title.
The title is redundant, so I changed it, but the Big Ten is the toughest conference in terms of physicality. The SEC is the best overall, as they are nearly as tough but more athletic top to bottom.
I am changing the title back to test something involving CZcams's algorithm.
@@collegefootballwithsam in the trenches, B10 is top notch football I agree. They get dirty
😂 these fools still crying about Michigan “tHeY cHEAteD”
NCAA said they’re straight, Harbaugh sat out the last 3 games, and they beat everyone knowing they were not stealing signs.
Michigan was absolutely loaded and on a mission last year and there are so-called adults on here trying to cope with that. It’s sad.
I can see Michigan losing 2 games this season- at Oregon, and osu. The Texas game will be tough but they’re at the big house and they lost a lot of players in the draft too. It’s the 2nd game of the season so they have no idea what Michigans offense will look like. The defense is still a wood chipper.
After winning the NC and losing all that production in the draft it’s next man up and I’m good if they lose 2 games in a rebuild year and have the chance to make the playoffs.
I just don’t understand how you reached the conclusion that OSU would lose to scUM I. The playoff cause of exp, but scUM is 128th out of 132 for returning starters 🤣
What will your excuse be this year? 🤔
OhiHoe Suckeyes will lose at least 2 games.
Hahaha. ScUM is not going to the Championship game. Period. 3 losses to Texas, Oregon and OSU, and will likely miss the playoffs.
So Nebraksa, whose a 3.5 point home underdog against Colorado is going to come to LA and beat USC? Spreads going to be USC -14.5. This is just bad analysis
USC is a paper tiger.
What is your problem..USC absolutely sucks.
@@dionpryor369 hahaha USC is way better than Nebraska, worry about beating Boulder junior college before you can even talk to USC fans
@@dionpryor369 🤣
@@AustinHalloran Whatever losers . What the crap have you won lately.. way better my ass.
I mean Oregon looks like they will be a better team than Florida State and Florida states gonna be overrated this year. DJ U is there quarterback, and he is extremely overrated. I would probably take Oregon over Florida State, even if it was at Florida State, which let’s be honest it’s not going to be. Michigan has to be the most overrated team by you though. You’re making a lot of assumptions for Michigan just because they’re gonna have a really good defense. you’re assuming that the coach is not gonna have any sort of drop off. You’re assuming that losing all the starters they did on both sides of the ball, but specifically offense will not matter. You also have this assumption, whether you realize it or not that the new head coach just because he was a felon for a couple games last year is going to be as good as Harbaugh was. Realistically, they’re probably gonna have three losses this year or maybe if they beat Oregon at home they will have two losses and squeak in to the college football playoffs, but probably just three losses and right outside the top 12. It honestly shows a heavy bias because if anybody else in the conference that doesn’t have super elite, recruiting classes lost that many starters, regardless if they won the year before or not they would be predicted to have a little bit of a drop off
Agree He's a Ttun fan so he's kinda biased but some what honest
michigan is gonna doggy style on oregon yal ain't ready😂
@@dbeaux yeah I’m sure that’s gonna happen 😂. Even though Oregon has the better QB, RB, WR, TE, OL, and a comparable defense. It’s OK you guys won last year. You’re gonna take a step back because you lost your coach and a bunch of starters and you guys don’t recruit super elite.
USC not losing to Nebraska you’re crazy Nebraskas defense can’t handle USCs offense all day
Ohio State will not lose to Michigan this year. Michigan may not make the playoffs
What a stupid thing to say.
I do think the Buckeyes will beat Michigan by a close score in Columbus, but these teams are closer together than what most are saying. Both have NFL talent all over the DL and secondary and Michigan has a RB who will likely be elite and an underrated OL. If everything goes wrong for Michigan and everything goes right for Ohio State, I can see that happening.
@@collegefootballwithsam I disagree, I am a buckeye but I’m a buckeye hater at times. But I believe in momentum in college football, Michigan was the team last year and they had the momentum and motivation with veteran leadership. Now it’s all flipped the other way, Buckeyes have the veteran leadership and they have all the motivation in the world. They lost 3 games in a row to Michigan in 2024 it hurts, it’s tough to take. BUT I think it only will make them rise higher. When Michigan was bad, it was easy for them to win the big ten. Now it’s very difficult to win the big ten and the staff changes in Columbus are going to make a huge difference. Day McCord and hsrtlind was a bad combo. Now chip taking over and Day recruiting/overseeing the program is going to make a huge difference. Ohio State last 2 years was eliminated by the natl champion by a combined 7 points both games practically on the road. The leap is coming this year. They may not win it all but they’ll win 13-14 games and beat Michigan soundly. Lotta respect for what Michigan has done, I love a comeback story even though I hate them. Best of luck.
@@collegefootballwithsam I mean, literally everything has to go right for Michigan in every single scenario for what you’re talking about to happen where Michigan makes the college football playoffs and makes the national championship. You’re actually making a lot of presumptuous claims if you’re saying Michigan is going to be as good as they are this year. Realistically and what we have seen throughout college, especially when you don’t have super elite recruiting classes is that it doesn’t go always as smoothly as you’re trying to act like it’s going to. There is going to be a little bit of regression naturally . Michigan will lose to Texas, Ohio state , and Oregon . Maybe they are like the last team in or something
Don’t beat on it. Michigan is going to show the world. What Big Boy Football is all about. Go Blue. 4 in a roll. 😂
osu loses 3 times including vs mich....day fired..... book it......
My most reliable sources are telling me the same
Urban meyer is then appointed interim coach and then takes over again full time
You’re projecting Michigan’s record on Ohio State in a way to cope, you don’t actually believe that with OSU, you’re just blowing smoke, just hoping that result for OSU out of emotion instead of logic, psychology 101
Going to be a lot of surprised people this fall on the Buckeyes, I’m usually negative but they made the moves in the staff on offense. It will pay big in October and November when they run the ball well for the first time since 2019. Can’t believe I’m saying 2019 but it’s the truth. Day has failed so far, no doubts about that, but that does not mean he cant breakthrough. Also day is 56-8 and now he’s going 9-3 with his best staff and best team.
I seem to remember another team struggling for 5 years to win the big ten and beat their rival. How’d that end up? Remember when Kirby sucked and couldn’t win big games???
College fans only believe what they saw last. No forward thinking, Day will be considered a top 3 coach in the sport in 3 years likely with a title too.
@@bucks33331 Really it shouldn’t even be a surprise to people, well if they really know the sport enough and think logically OSU should surprise no one, but people have casual tendencies and are so bias they can’t help themselves to say outlandish things, opinions are opinions but there are some non logical ones
Crap
Hot take, michigan state finishes ahead of penn state in the rankings
Horrific take 💀
@@mrjadteri know lol
This is scorching hot more because I love PSU in 2024. I do think MSU will be wayyy better.
Put that pipe down bro LMFAO! 😂
That is a HOT TAKE for sure. I think both teams are being slept on this year, but the closest result I could see to match your prediction is both teams going 9-3/10-2, which have insanely small odds as I don't think MSU can do better than 9-3 and I don't think Penn State can do worse than 10-2.
Can you help me explain the logic of UM beating OSU in the semifinals with no passing game to speak of no playmakers on offense outside of Loveland going against a “historically good defense”?, Also why is it you cite Chip Kelly’s time at UCLA and not what he didn’t at Oregon and even the Eagles? Common sense would say his offenses were bad because of the lack of talent right? That just came off as weird. Maybe a little clarity will help.
