Watching BTN preview, coach Kill won 10 in year three at each of his previous two stops. Just for fun, assuming they win ten, where are the ten wins found?

I'll say they lose at Michigan, vs. Nebraska, at Indiana.

08/29/13 vs. UNLV
09/07/13 at New Mexico State
09/14/13 vs. Western Illinois
09/21/13 vs. San Jose State
09/28/13 vs. Iowa (Homecoming)
10/05/13 at Michigan
10/19/13 at Northwestern
10/26/13 vs. Nebraska
11/02/13 at Indiana
11/09/13 vs. Penn State
11/23/13 vs. Wisconsin
11/30/13 at Michigan State
01/01/14 Bowl Game vs. TBD
 

I'd flip Indiana & Northwestern; agree on the first two.
 

08/29/13 vs. UNLV - W
09/07/13 at New Mexico State - W

At the risk of keeping it real and not looking foolish:

08/29-13 vs. UNLV - W
09/07/13 at New Mexico State - W
09/14/13 vs. Western Illinois - W
09/21/13 vs. San Jose State - L
09/28/13 vs. Iowa (Homecoming) - W
10/05/13 at Michigan - L
10/19/13 at Northwestern - L
10/26/13 vs. Nebraska - L
11/02/13 at Indiana - L
11/09/13 vs. Penn State - W
11/23/13 vs. Wisconsin - L
11/30/13 at Michigan State - L

5-7

San Jose State and Iowa may flip but feel they'll lose one of them

Indiana and Penn State could flip or could win they both - if so likely bowl bound

Could beat MSU late if Sparty is not in bowl contention however I doubt that will happen

Apparently you missed the point of this thread. My prediction was made based on the "Just for fun, assuming they win ten" statement in the original post.

Read the OP, troll.
 

In this fantasy world, it is easier to guess the three games they would have the lowest probability of winning. with that in mind, I say their lowest chance of winning will come against...

Michigan
Michigan State
Either B1G Championship or bowl game

...the rest are wins. If anything even remotely similar to this many wins were to take place, I would start the "When will Jerry Kill get a bronze statue" thread right here on Gopher Hole, in January.

This thread is probably a good indication of how every team is undefeated through mid August. As soon as someone like UNLV hangs with the Gophers, or a game is lost to someone like Iowa, this type of thread can be packed away again until next summer.
 

Ill say losses to Nebraska, Michigan, and Michigan State. Getting to 10 wins would mean that we beat Indiana and Northwestern on the road in my opinion. Then beating Penn State and Wisconsin.

When you think about it, it's not that crazy. Stranger things have happened.

But not usually to the Gophers. :( That's what always gets to me. How can Northwestern and Purdue catch lightning in a bottle multiple times, not to mention Sconnie's rise, but not the Gophs?

Anyway, if the Gophs win 10 games this year I'm guessing the losses would be Michigan and Michigan State.

Feel like if we win 10 we will be overmatched most likely in our bowl
 

08/29/13 vs. UNLV- W
09/07/13 at New Mexico State- W
09/14/13 vs. Western Illinois- W
09/21/13 vs. San Jose State- W
09/28/13 vs. Iowa (Homecoming)- W not only is this a lock, Floyd will be in perenial home in glass case in Minneapolis from now on.
Iowa is going in the crapper and we are on the rise.
10/05/13 at Michigan- L too much Gardner, and we usually struggle in Big House.
10/19/13 at Northwestern- W I know Gophers have tough time with Northwestern but we owe them one.
10/26/13 vs. Nebraska- W upset of the year, Martinez fumbles the ball three times that leads to short fields for Gophers.
Red Hourde goes home unhappy this year.
11/02/13 at Indiana- L Gophers come out flat and play like crap in Bloomington.
11/09/13 vs. Penn State- W
11/23/13 vs. Wisconsin- W signature win, no chopping down our goal posts this time stinkin Badgers. Goldy sacks up.
11/30/13 at Michigan State- L Let down from Wisconsin MSU will need win to be bowl eligible.
01/01/14 Bowl Game vs. TBD Unknown Gophers 9-4 should lead to good bowl game this year.
 

One could argue that all games are must wins...
I think the must wins are Iowa & Indiana.
We can't fall behind these two teams.

A win against Becky, Nebby, or Meatchicken will qualify as a signature win.
Victories over Penn State, Sparty, & Northwestern would be awesome, & yes we owe Northwestern one.

I see wins over Indiana, Iowa, Becky, & Northwestern this year.
 

Getting to 10 wins...I'd probably say we have to at the very least go 6-1 at home. That means we have to get to 4-1 on the road as I agree with upnorth, we'd probably be at a deficit in our bowl game. I'd guess that loss would be at Michigan.

So I'd say Nebraska and @Michigan would be the regular season losses to get us to 10-2, then loss in the bowl game.
 

We beat UNLV like a drum. We then begin preparations for the next game and repeat.
