Looking forward to that Nebraska/IU game. Can't say that was on my bingo card as an interesting game when the season began.

i’ll be a believer in IU if they can beat Nebby or even play them well and lose by 3 or 4 .

Kansas might just be unlucky. 4 of 5 losses by one score, and the Arizona state loss doesn’t look bad at all. I think they’re due, and if I was them I’d have Iowa state circled. I’ll bet ku knocks off the cyclones in a few weeks.

I think they’re still a good win for the illini, and think ku is much better than their record would indicate.

If they lose bad to Houston, scratch that

While I agree, the cyclones are floating at a different level right now. Brecht is just playing like a dude. Their defensive coordinator has also been calling a great scheme thus far. KU would have a better shot against Kstate. 3 ranked teams in a 3 week stretch (KSU, ISU, BYU) followed by Colo; they’ll have chances for sure.
