Next Five Games

[awd4cy]

In order of likelihood of wins:
1.) NIU
2.) TTU
3.) KU
4.) BU
5.) OU

OU is good and will be tough on the road. I don't think Kansas will hit their stride by the time they come in to Hilton. Baylor is Baylor is Baylor, they've never won in Hilton. I realize last years team didn't win @TTU, but that team couldn't win unless there was at least 5,000 in attendance

They did it at TCU and UMKC.

That is a tough start with the best teams being at home. I could see anywhere from 1-4 to 5-0.

1st loss??? Seems like about 6 times this season I've thought that it was coming... But it never does. Why look for it?

 

[Jordanj6502]

I believe that Baylor game is a break game. So, the old people will have to be louder to make up for it, and they have no Cyclone Alley to complain about.

Won't happen. The Texas games over break the last 2 years were dead quiet.

Were we undefeated those last 2 years with sellout crowds?

I rest my case. I'll be there (over 35 is old, right?) and I plan to make noise...

We did have sellout crowds in both of those games and the next home game I guarantee was loud.

How many losses will the B12 champion have?

My guess is 3 or 4.

 

[bawbie]

I said I weeks ago, and now the Kenpom projections agree with me: first loss is Jan 29 in Lawrence.

 

[cyclones500]

Even though I could see at OU or at Texas before that, I wouldn't be shocked if the streak lasted until that game.

To take it a step further, is that the absolute latest you'd realistically expect the streak to end? (My max-out is at OSU, Feb. 3 — I don't see getting a sweep over Kansas AND winning in Stillwater, while remaining undefeated).

@ Oklahoma will be where I am concerned the most. They are well-coached team.

I am glad to have KU at home first. Great confidence builder (regardless of win or lose).

 

[mjhavlo76]

I think we defeat Northern Illinois by many (I will insert the Brent Blum impossibility, of Northern Illinois winning). Texas Tech will be improved from last year, but I just don't think they match up at all with our team. We should beat them by a good margin. The Baylor game scares me. They are damn good this year.

exactly, the attitude of a pessimistic fanbase. I believe we can run the table past the Kansas game

 

[CYCLNST8]

This team has moxy. Go ahead and doubt them, tho. They seem to thrive on it.

 

[JohnnyFive]

Baylor game, even though in Hilton is where I would bet the first loss is coming.

Aint nobody got time fo dat

 

[jbindm]

5-0, a top five national ranking, and a verbal commitment from rashad Vaughn. It's going to be a good couple weeks.

 

[istater7]

How could a game being played in Hilton Colesium scare a Cyclone fan?

 

[Rural]

They did it at TCU and UMKC.

Yeah, we won those but we looked pretty rough doing it.

 

[BryceC]

If we can get through that stretch with one loss is take it. If the clones are undefeated afterward at 16-0 I'll start considering this title talk.

 

[cyatheart]

At OU, 11am start...don't like it
