Record projections for this year

[cycloneman003]

i think we out to come out of a very weak non-conference schedule at 13-2. the only games i could see us possibly losing there are:
@ UNI
Oregon State
Drake
@ Iowa
@ Houston

i say we go 3-2 in those, although they are all winnable games we will lose at least one or two. all the others ought to be wins unless we just dont show up

as i look at conference i see 5 wins, possibly 6-8 if we progress better than i expect.

if we go 5-11 in conference thats 18-13 by my predictions. i can see us as good as 22-9 with this schedule, but i would be happy with the improvement if we go 18-13. thats my official prediction.

Wow put the koolaid down. No way do we go 13-2 in non conf.

Wow! I hope your right. I'm not nearly as optimistic for this year, however, I can see us being much better then some think. I could also see us being worse then any of us want.

A little above .500 and hopefully NIT.

We will either go 11-4 or 10-5. Depends on if we beat aTm this week.

Anybody dug up the record projections from last year? that could be fun to look at...

have you seen our no conference schedule??? it includes home games against the powerhouses UC-Davis, Loyola-Marymount, Mississippi Valley State, Jacksonville State, South Dakota State, Mercer, SIU-Edwardsville and Houston Baptist. and there are only 4 road games out of 15

I agree with this, but we have no shot at NIT unless we are at least .500 in B12 and that is very unlikely.

I would say 11-4 in non conference, 7-9 in conference. I would take a 18-13 record from this group of guys this year.

[PGreen ISU '92]

My prediction is 8-8 Big 12 and 21-10 overall. We would be favored in every non-conference game if that game were played today with the exception of @ EIU, @ UNI, and @ Houston – and those games would be pick ‘ems. Due to the Big 12 being down just a bit this year I think we’ll go 6-2 on our home court and 2-6 away from Hilton to pull out a 8-8 overall Big 12 record. 21-10 won’t be enough though due to the strength of schedule and we’ll still need a win or two in the Big 12 tournament to seal the deal and get a ticket punched to the Big Dance. One in we’ll make a magical run to the Final Four where we’ll lose a close one in the National Semifinals.

There is no way we are favorites against Drake.

I don't see us losing to Oregon State, but I wouldn't be shocked about losing to Hawaii - mainly due to traveling and all of that...
