RealTimeRPI.com now projecting 20-10 record and no road wins

It is what it is.

gocubs2118 is now projecting 22-8 with 2 true road wins.

Dont pay very much attention to the game predictor. For most all teams in power conferences it will show home wins and road losses- unless you are really good or really bad....

 

[jsb]

Got to play the games. 20-10 sounds pretty good after the 2day meltdown.

 

[storycy]

That is as much of a component of the strength of our opposition as it is a condemnation of our quality. To be fair, if we had not yet played them, it would say we would lose at Iowa and at WVU as well.

Good god we beat kansas we were everyone's favorite team, we lose to tech everyone hates us. SMH.

@: OSU / KSU / TCU we gotta get these road wins and hold serve at home and we are probably a 4-5 seed?

depending on big12 tourney, probably 3 or 4 seed

It's a ******* computer. Get a grip.

Sounds about right IMO. We could do better, but we could also do worse. We don't out-talent many conference teams, but with Hoiberg we can out play them.

To be fair, we only won at Tech, TCU and OSU in conference play last year and were still a 3 seed. Yes the Big 12 tourney helped as did undefeated non-con, but we already have 2 better road wins than we had last year.

Looking at the game-to-game, none of those look ridiculous. The one I would disagree with is @ TCU, but then again they looked good this weekend in Morgantown and we got smacked by Tech.

I'm in that boat. I don't see a loss @TCU in March, and another road win should come either @OSU or @KSU. 20-10 isn't impossible, but 20-8 is about right (that also was my preseason projection, but that's only a coincidence).

This is more along my line of thinking, 21-9 and not so much predicting individual games but our chances in each.

If we pick up another unexpected road win all of a sudden RPI will love us again. Tech was going to hit our RPI win or lose. It's blind to individual wins, just gotta pick up a big road win.

I bet as we get closer to the TCU/KSU games if we keep playing well it will turn those to wins(Playing OU and TX twice plus KU one more time will really bump up our RPI).

I mean did anyone before the b12 conference season really expect us to win on the road at KU, OU, Texas, or OSU? Probably not, so it's not like these predictions, minus the TCU one and MAYBE minus the KSU one are all really that groundbreaking.

You will be the first to go when they take over.

This team will win some games on the road. This team will win more than 20 games.

 

[Spanky]

20 wins sounds about right. Did not watch the SC or TT games?

 

[AMarner32]

Amarner32 is now projecting 26-4 (16-2).

Did you watch the Arkansas, Iowa, and Kansas games? It's never as bad as it seems or as good as it seems.
