Ken Pomeroy Predictions for Marquette this season

[ozmetal71]

Pretty good stuff...he has us finishing 25-5 and 15-3 in conference.  I would take that season in a heartbeat.

Possible but not likely. Big East is too tough for that. Had Trevor proven to be a monster (and healthy), but  let's be realistic.

[Brew City]

Finishing the season on a 14 game winning streak!

This is probably the best MU team since the final four run.  I agree, the big east is tough and we're sure to have a hiccup or two along the way.  I think this team has a real good chance to do special things come March.

I thought he had us winning the Big East when I saw his Louisville and G-Town picks but then I saw West Virginia.  Here are his other current predictions:

West Virginia:  17-1  (woah!)
Marquette:     15-3 (rah rah!)
Louisville:       13-5
Pittsburgh:     13-5
Providence:    12-6
Notre Dame:   11-7
Georgetown:   11-7 (woah!)
UConn:          10-8
Villanova:       9-9
South Florida:  7-11 (woah!)
St. Johns:      7-11
Seton Hall:      6-12
Syracuse:       6-12
Rutgers:         3-15
Cincinatti:       2-16
DePaul:           2-16

Can't say I see WVU going 17-1 in the BE

[TallTitan34]

Huggy Bear will improve them but 17-1 is a bit much!

[Wareagle]

G-town is currently shooting 52% on their free throws as a team.  That's a huge reason why they are predicted to lose that many games.

[The Man in Gold]

Overall, his Pythagorean theorem, which he uses for these predictions, has WVU as the #1 team in the country and us as a very solid #8.  Shockingly UW is ahead of us at #7.

As with any predictions based on stats, his "early season" predictions aren't that great, because there's not enough data to back them up.
