Those are just my off the top of the head, initial impression, answers. Mizzou and KU are toss ups really.

6-6
Win the bowl game, to make the season 7-6.
Man, I sure hope I'm right!

 

[SamsB]

7 including bowl win.

 

[cstrunk]

I'll go with 7 after the bowl win as well.

 

[Drive4cy]

5 wins. Unless the offense REALLY steps up. We need 30 PPG from them. 20-21 won't cut it with this schedule.

 

[cy1010]

For all the people goin with 6 wins before the bowl game I'd like to know, just out of curiosity, where you're getting the 6 wins. I think 6 wins is best case scenario.

I have us winning four of these five:

NIU
UNI
KSU
KU
CU

And then finding two other wins somewhere in there, most likely coming from Tech, Utah, or Mizzou (or maybe even Iowa/Nebraska).

Interesting pick with TTU. A lot of unknown I suppose with TT coming in.

Yeah, a lot of unknowns..

Yep. New coach but what will their offense look like? If we would have played Utah at the 'normal' date I'd say ISU wins by 10 because Utah lost a lot of players. Now their guys get a chance to mature. I am pretty worried about Northern Illinois. They will basically prepare for ISU from the start of two a days...

ISU beats Kansas, CU, K-State and either Mizzou or Neb. I would sign up for 4 conference wins right now.
