2022 IUFB Prediction League - Week 5 at Nebraska 10/1/22 7:30pm BTN

[LIHoosier]

How does this work?

Each week I will create Prediction League threads for the weeks game(s).

It's a simple concept:

Each week you start with 100 points (only if a prediction is made, otherwise 0 points for the week)
+25 PTs if you guess the winner
-25 PTs if you pick the loser
+10 PTs if guess IU score correctly
+10 PTs if guess Opponent score correct
-The # of points different between the actual and predicted score of IU (over/under doesn't matter)
-The # of points different between the actual and predicted score of opponent (over/under doesn't matter)

*** Reminder if you post a prediction and want to change it, please just POST a NEW Prediction, do not edit a prior post as I may miss those edits.

The person with the most points (MINUS LOWEST GAME) at the end of the season wins.

If and when IU overcomes the first half of these football games, IU will become a decent competitor.  Right now, IU's identity is that we do not quit.  That's something.

Nebraska is broken.  They are concerned about IU's run defense.  They are concerned that IU can control the pace of the game.  Nebraska could do some damage against a defense that sleeps.  So, IU has to change what we have been doing in the first half on defense.  

Will Nebraska be able to fix themselves in these two weeks?   Uh no.  They just fired their head coach.  And they want to hire Urban Meyer or Lee Corso or Aaron Rogers or anyone who makes eye contact.

I hope that your prediction doesn't cost you much.  You just have 3 points too many for each team.

Tough environment but I believe any path to 6 wins involves us getting this one, and I think we do.  Will probably take cracking the 30's but playing the 127th ranked total defense will provide that opportunity.

IU - 37

NEB - 28

This feels like a game Nebraska dominates and then finds one of those soul crushing bad teams way to lose. I’m going with a late snap over the punter’s head for the cheap late touchdown. Also kind of feeling of fumble into the end zone touchback situation.

I'm not always pumping sunshine; I had us getting squished by Cinci. But for some reason, this game?

I don't know about all of that. 

But you definitely have the score right.
