Am I Nuts?
This may sound nuts, but I took a lot of positives out of the Iowa loss. Remember this was an away, night game, at a top 15 (perhaps overrated) team.
Forcier played by far his worst game of the season, and we lost by two.
We had five turnovers, and we lost by two.
Our maligned defense continually holds tough in the red zone after turnovers.
The O-line controlled one of the best D-lines in the country.
In many ways, we are where we deserve to be. 4 straight close games and we have won the two at home, and lost the two on the road.
I think we learn from the mistakes and the secondary learns to hold on 3rd and 30.
Call me nuts....I think we win out.
Yep, pessimistic Bilg is calling 6-0 for the rest of the way in the regular season, with a loss to LSU in the Citrus (or whatever they call it now) Bowl.
Hold me to it.
Note: This is not sarcasm or simply hopeful thinking. I really do believe we win out and go to a January Bowl. However, if this does not happen and we stumble to the finish with a 2-4 record, while all are free to laugh and mock me, this should not destroy my credibility into perpetuity.....IE, if on the board in 2017 I predict a victory a week before the OSU game, I don't want to see a "Yeah, whatever, you predicted a 6-0 finish to 09....."
