I fully expect IU to have five wins after the first six games of the season, and will be extremely disappointed if that doesn't happen. If we are, in fact, 5-1 at the season's halfway point, I see Game 7 against Michigan State as the key game of 2020.
While always competitive, the Spartans are not the powerhouse they were just a few seasons ago. We've got them in Bloomington this season after letting last year's game slip away in East Lansing. If we beat them this year and go to 6-1, we've got a good shot at another 8+ win season. Lose that game, though, and the ceiling likely becomes 7 wins.
What do you think?
On a different note, here are Athlon's Big Ten predictions for 2020. Hard to argue with their Big Ten East evaluations.
