I predicted we'd be 3-3 at this point and that we would go 5-1 in the second half and probably smoke the bowl game...

I still like that pick

We have a very good chance to go 9-3 if we play flawless football against Utah.

Question of the week: does this take the sting away from the Michigan (st) losses, or does it pour vinegar into the wound?

They could be a legit 10-2 team if they pulled off those two games.

when was the last time we played flawless??? 1991?

lol we'll get our big win against one of the two (utah/usc) and lose the other... I'm good with that at the present,... and personally Utah can boat race us by 60 if it means we beat USC in LA... but that's just me

I'm very happy with the win today. It was tough at times, but in the end we prevailed. A win is a win and now we are 3-3. I see us losing to possibly Utah..., hope not to USC. that means 8-4 perhaps?

You're right. It's wishful thinking. But I can dream.

USC is playing Stanford pretty well right now. I was thinking that SC would be the more vulnerable team, but I think it's honestly Utah for us. We have them at home, and USC's seniors should be amped for their last game at home. I think it's more realistic that we beat Utah right now. A lot can change between now and then, but I think we have to win one of them, along with the other four games, to make it a successful season. My opinion doesn't matter in the large scheme of things, 7-5 is an improvement, this I realize; but I would feel much better at 8-4 heading into a bowl.

Stanford will win by 17.

We are going to roll the rest of the way. You can book that. Losses early mean we can climb into the polls late. At the very least we are looking at the Champs Sports Bowl imo.

PS: UM beat us, but we'll pass them on their way down and on our way up.

As for vinegar in the wounds. Nah. It was a learning experience. It sucks that if Crist was in that game, or even if Kelly doesn't call that stupid flea flicker we could have won. Stanford is our only legit loss as they just dismantled us. Should be 5-1 imo.

I'm not upset about any of the losses. I know we should've, yes, not could've, won, and have moved on. 2011 will be the year I get livid over a loss.

5-1 from here on is overly optimistic IMO

Utah is going to kick our *** all over the field, IMO. Way, way too well coached and too many athletes.

Yes, they barely beat Pittsburgh at home. We barely beat Pittsburgh at home. Using the transitive property, we should be able to at least be competitive against Utah at home. No. I still think Utah is going to smoke us at home in an effort to get some recognition in the polls and make the BCS in what is turning into a year without any truly elite teams.

Not a guarantee.

7-5 is probable, 8-4 is still a possibility, and 9-3 is a long shot but could happen if Utah turns the ball over 5 times.
