Toughest Game

JoPa pick

I too have circled PSU.

If OSU gets by Tejas and Iowa, one might think they can coast to Ann Arbor. PSU's defense will keep them in this one, folks.

And we haven't exactly blown them out in their "down" years, have we? If these guys disrespect PSU, we're in for a long night.

Hey PSU may have an offense now!

Anyways, this game reminds me of Wisky of 03. Not good

I picked Texas... only because I really want to beat them for bragging rights when I'm on a Big 12 board...

 

[MightbeaBuck]

In my mind, it was a toss-up. Miami, San Diego State, or Indiana. So I took the dark horse: Michigan. hope its the toughest game we only win by three touchdowns

I say PSU, for all kinds of reasons:

1. tOSU, traditionally, does NOT play well at Happy Valley
2. Night game at PSU
3. Texas and Iowa are two of the three games immediately preceding this one.
4. PSU is going to have a top 5-10 defense
5. easy to overlook

Texas and Iowa and scUM are games the Bucks will be up for, bigtime. I agree they'll all be tough. While scUM is the rival, I think Iowa may be the next toughest game after PSU. Anybody that thinks we're gonna stroll into a night game at Happy Valley and just walk out with a win is on crack.

I took Michigan for some very talented reasons: Henne, Breaston and Hart. Add to that the fact that the Bucks have not played well at Ann Arbor (2 - 8) for some time. In fact, they haven't played well against Michigan for quite some time, since Bo and Don Canham arrived to be more specific about it.

But talent or no talent, it's still The Game, and I've yet to see either team roll over and die regardless of the odds or the score. The working definition of a ball buster.

Iowa

I see many tough games-scUM will be a dogfight. I just think that some teams have other teams' number. Iowa HANDLED us last year. I think its gonna be a tough game.

 

[Buckin' A]

On paper, we have the talent to dismantle everyone we play this year. The questions is which game the team won't be up for like they should...hard to predict.

 

[BuckWrestler141]

How are more people not picking Iowa then Penn State!?! I realize they lost their D-line and home feild, but they've gained some RBs and expereince. Fact is they KILLED us last year, I say we can win but it sure as hell will be a lot harder then Penn State

 

[Buckin' A]

Again, on paper Iowa is better, but Happy Valley at night, history of playing bad there...that's where I'd put my money. Plus, we now owe Iowa an ass kicking and I'm sure our guys remember that.

Texas will be a monster. Iowa will be tough -- even Penn State at Happy Valley. But nothing is tougher than scUM at their place. Not this year, not ever. That's why it's so much fun to beat them.
