Tower, you still think 12-6 in conf?   That's pretty sporty.

The first four games we have, 1-3 very possible. 

[JakeBarnes]

Thinking 11-7 after this. Get both against prov. Both against Depaul. Splits everywhere else.

I would be surprised if we do that.  I'll take 10-8 right now.  Wouldn't be surprised if it was 8-10.  Going to be a bear.

Anyone who is just penciling in 2 wins against DePaul hasn't watched DePaul play this year.  What they have and haven't done the past 15 years is irrelevant.  This is a pretty good team and their resume and rankings show just that.

Seems like this year home court is huge. Hold serve at home, steal a few on the road, Providence, Creighton, St Johns. 11 or 12 wins.

We will lose at least one, probably two at home.  Question is whether we can steal more than 1 or 2 on road to offset

Not to be negative, but we don't usually take both from DePaul when they are dog poop.

I would substitute Georgetown for DePaul. Don't get me wrong, the Hoyas have impressed since The Leftovers, but I think depth issues will really hurt once they get into conference play.

I'd also give us a decent shot at sweeping Creighton since we own their arena.

I think they get us this year. Its BE game 1.

Without looking back at it. In the New BE how many times have we started 1-0? Thats been a tough trend for us.

Just 2016-17, Howard's freshman year. Time to finish it how he started.

I think 10-8 would be solid.

Interesting that Marquette will likely only have 1 Q3 game all year and 23 of their 30 games will be Q1 or Q2 games.  We are also scheduled to play 14 Q1 games (could change) with 12 more to go, so plenty of chances to have an impressive resume.  Have to think that will be a feature to our schedule that will help come selection Sunday.

MU zooms up to #37 from #50 in the NET ranks following yesterday's blowout win.  Guess those offensive efficiency numbers are really significant in the NET calcs.

Wow, that's quite the jump. I wonder if UW pounding Tennessee helped that as well.

I know people don't feel the necessity of running up efficiency margins, but even against crap teams, it helps. Wisconsin and Purdue winning likely helped, but our margin was the biggest determiner, no doubt.

Georgetown ahead of us.  Wow.  New Big East has been interesting - very solid top to bottom yet ultimately just 1 or 2 Top 25 caliber teams.

[lawdog77]

Question: Are the Q1, Q2 etc determined at the time of playing, or end of year?
