I like 12-0. The ball bounces our way all season, the zebras make the correct calls, 1 of our running backs wins the Heisman, Luke completes 75% of his passes with 33 touchdowns and zero ints. Brett coaches a near perfect production of Illinois football and wins bigten and national coach of the year. Sit back and enjoy as Illinois wins it first natty since the 1920's. Dream big or don't dream at all. This season will make up for everything since the slush fund.

I see us going 2-2 against Washington/USC/Duke/Indiana. I would not bet on Wisconsin being good, especially considering their schedule, but it happens every year that we pencil in wins and drop one of those “other” games. This year likely one of Purdue/Rutgers/Wisconsin.

So 8-4.

8-4. We lose to OSU, UW, either Duke or IU and one other (let's say Wisky). We did well last year in close games, so the ball bounces against us a few times this year. That this will be viewed as a disappointment shows how far we have come
I feel like we are either due for a big correction in fourth quarter performances and it is more of a 7 or 8 win season or this is truly a special year and Luke just has that 4th quarter magic and we make the playoff

IDK....I like Luke to win the Heisman in this scenario.

9-3


Still right at 8.5. I think 8-4 is the most likely outcome but I simply have to go 9-3. 8-4 would still be the first time ever we've gone 3/4 seasons with at least 8 wins and my mark for a successful season.

8-4. Too many questions at WR and LB. Plus the O Line is all back but they weren’t great last year. Huge W vs OSU and traditionally head scratching home loss with Maryland being that team this year.
