2006 predictions...one year later

[melbitoast]

Though this could be fun to look back on. Here is my response to what one guy predicted last year. Along with the final 2006 standings (remember to subtract bowl game result though). I was pretty close, but Colorado fell way short.

KSU 6-2 9-3 (not sure about this. north is weak enough, but i think they lose at least 3 in conf.)
NU 5-3 8-4 (much improved. will go 7-1 and win north)
CU 4-4 6-6 (agree pretty much. they win 5 in conf. TT is toss up for 6th win)
ISU 3-5 6-6 (agree here.)
KU 2-6 6-6 (Def is still solid. Should win at least 4 conf.)
MU 2-6 6-6 (close. change conf to 3-5 with non-conf toss up with Ole Miss; could win 6, could win 5)

OU 8-0 11-1 (hard to argue. I think we beat Oregon in a close one though)
UT 7-1 10-2 (Depending on QB adjustment, could lose 3 conf games and go 8-4)
TAMU 5-3 9-3 (NO WAY. Defense still sucks win lose at least 5 conf games and may go under .500)
TTU 3-5 7-5 (good D; same system; they win at least 8 with 2 swing games at CU and at ISU)
OSU 3-5 7-5 (win 5 definitely; 2 swing games at KSU and at KU - i think KU wins)
BU 0-8 3-9 (i see BU flirting with .500 but falling short; probably 2-2 non-conf, and could beat KSU, A&M and OSU)

Big 12 Standings
NORTH CONF. W-L OVERALL W-L
Nebraska 6-2 9-5 9-4, lost bowl game

Now it's time for you very, very early 07 predictions! Come on, you can do it. We don't need to know who the starting QB is or the linebacker core......

i just saw the thread for 2007 predictions, and thought better of it. Thought I would hold off until after the spring game like I did last year. :-)

I just thought this would help us all kill a little time until we start getting spring ball updates.

Oh come one... they might as well give us the crystal ball, can't be too hard... :D

I don't blame you on that one. I pulled out my Quige (spelling) and communed with Nostradomas, he's waiting till after the spring game too!
