NU & Bowl Chances

So not only are we 5-0, but our upcoming schedule - on paper - is quite winnable:

10/11 - vs. Michigan State
10/18 - vs. Purdue (Homecoming)
10/25 - @ Indiana
11/1 - @ Minnesota

I am by no means saying it will happen, but 9-0 is not out of the question. Then comes the hammer:

11/8 - vs. Ohio State
11/15 - @ Michigan
11/22 - vs. Illinois.

I'm guessing we go 1-2 in that stretch. As a result, I think 8-4 is quite realistic. Legitimate bowl, here we come!

That's crazy talk, yo.

I can't wait til' we get obliterated by Georgia or Auburn or Florida in the Outback Bowl. It's gonna be sweet.

Even if we do end up getting killed by a bigtime SEC team (like those above), who cares? Besides, while the top of the SEC is probably better than the top of the qzaBig 10, I am by no means convinced that it's better top to bottom.
