No mention of Hawks

Check out question number 8. Our neighbors to the east don't even get a mention in the relative strength of their conference. Guess the author really depended on the name Big 10.

Found this quote rather funny, and soo true

Re: No mention of Hawks

Why do authors of these pre-season predictions always leave teams out?

I know ESPN left ISU out a few months ago in a preview they did. You'd think if these analysis were as in depth as they claim, they'd at least contain all of the teams.

Jon Miller had some Husker homer on his show the other day saying that he saw at least 9 wins.

I think they should be pretty dang happy getting to 7 or 8 wins. V. Tech, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas Tech, KU all look like pretty high chance of being losses. But Nebraska did dominate those teams in the 90's so what do I know.
