Iowa State 2020 Oddsmaker Win Total Released

[DSMCy]

I saw a good graphic on twitter last week. It plotted strength of schedule vs returning talent. Now I can't find it anywhere.
Anyone else happen to see that?

One of the teams that stood out was Michigan. High schedule strength and low returning talent.
I'll jump all over under 9 wins.

Finally found this tweet. Twitter is almost impossible to find things if you don't remember who tweeted it.

Pretty interesting. I'll be keeping my eyes on the o/u for teams in the top left.

I would like to see them win just one game. Want to guess which one?

national championship??

I think it's right around where most of us would have predicted: 7.5 wins

Texas isn't two full wins better than us. I would've thought our O/U would've been 8.5 instead of 7.5. Assuming that Oklahoma runs away with the conference, it's going to be a ridiculously tight race between 2nd and 4th (ISU, Texas, Oklahoma State).

Also, why does Nebraska always get so much love? They seriously are bad. Nebraska was ranked preseason last year and won 5 games. They suck.

How and why Kansas is ever included in these makes no sense to me

I wonder how their fanbase would react to each of those.

Gloriously

Lol yes.
Weren't they the favorites to win the West too?

By gloriously, if think you mean it'd be glorious to watch. I agree.

Oh absolutely. 6-6 and drop your New York bowl game? Fire up that severance pay machine and start printing money.

Looking at that Collin Wilson tweet, does anyone know who those fire-breathing dragons are? Looks like they have the best balance of a good returning team plus a really weak schedule.

I just don’t buy into the yearly OSU hype. I don’t think Gundy’s teams are what they once were.

Iowa is always a projected loss for me until we get a win. 8-4 my guess.

I think they left a couple of Zeros off the Kansas one.

@surly better tell them that 6.5 over/under for K-State is low.
