I still have to go through the schedule.  And may come to the same conclusions. But I hope the team doesn't lose every tough conference game as predicted minus UConn at home.  Would be a bad sign for the direction of the program.  That would essentially mean injury or poor coaching or our potential all Big East players are not really at that level or players 5-15 are non contributors.  My hope is your picks represent the floor for this team.  Anything worse and the pitch forks will be out for good reason. 

You may end up being right.  But boy I hope you aren't.

The caveat, is if you think the Big East is a top 3 conference this year.  If that is the rational, it makes more sense.

I know I have to put my picks in.  I'm not criticizing you at all.  I think you are a very knowledgeable fan.  I just hope you are wrong.

Getting at least a few home wins against Villanova, Providence, UConn, Creighton, and St. John's is absolutely critical for this team to get into the tournament

I don't know if Big East is a top 3 league, it certainly could be. But I do think they can get 7 teams in the tournament maybe even 8. St. John's and UConn are clearly a step above. I think DePaul, Butler, Seton Hall, and Georgetown are clearly a step below. I think the five teams between those two groups are very close together and will be home favorites against each other.


I'm also a very boring predictor. I tend to make picks based on who I think will be the betting favorite, then pick one upset win (UConn) and one WTF loss (@DePaul). Reality is almost always more messy.

I don't think people should get pitchforks out for a 21 win season, especially considering that it would be a 9 win improvement from last season. What will be interesting is if we end up in a play-in game. I'm not sure how fans will react

Quote from: TAMU, Knower of Ball on September 14, 2026, 12:42:50 PMI don't know if Big East is a top 3 league, it certainly could be.

This made me curious, so I went to see what Bart Torvik projects as the top conferences this season. Here is the average Bart Torvik ranking for each of the major conferences plus the top mid-majors:

SEC: 34.81
B1G: 40.72
B12: 44.25
BEast: 49.55
ACC: 56.06
P12: 90.44
A10: 112.93
MWest: 127.8
WCC: 143.9

So Bart Torvik doesn't project the BEast as top 3...but that may not mean what it used to. The gap between the haves and have nots has never been wider. There are only 11 mid-major teams in the top 75 and only two in top 50 (#11 Gonzaga and #45 Grand Canyon). There are only 4 high major teams outside the top 100 (#101 Stanford, #104 Boston College, #105 Penn State, #109 Georgia Tech).

ETA: These rankings are also in flux because it doesn't appear like Bart Torvik is consistent in whether it counts players who are in legal battles to return for another year. For example, Colin Porter is included in our roster, but Filip Borovicanin is not included in Xavier's roster.

Quote from: Captain Quette on September 15, 2026, 12:25:41 PMPredict 18 and 14. Miss NCAA but team is very much improved versus last year.

IDK that 18-14 would miss the NCAAT now that the field has been expanded. Last year only seven high major teams that had 18 or more regular season wins missed the tournament:

20-10 California
20-11 Seton Hall
20-11 Stanford
19-12 Virginia Tech
18-13 Indiana
18-13 West Virginia
18-13 Oklahoma State

With eight additional spots, over half of them...or high major teams with less than 18 regular season wins probably get into the tournament. We know that three of them for sure would have made it because they were in the first four out (Auburn, Indiana, Oklahoma).

Additionally, all seven played extremely weak non-conference schedules. Marquette's will be considerably tougher, meaning 18 wins would probably be enough.

Captain Quette

I suppose the number of Q1 wins in that 18 would be important plus I did not include performance in BE tourney. Trying to be consistent w my overall perspective for next year that we will be a better team but perhaps only slightly above .500.

Definitely still shell shocked from last year.

Would not represent progress and nearly the entire roster would need to be replaced.   
TRGV

Captain Quette

6 more wins, better record in BE, players having improved seasons, contesting for ncaa bid. That would be improvement. Think a distinction is expectations of what fans think is a better season. My expectations are tempered for next year.

We need significant YoY development from current players and new guys to be talent upgrades. Otherwise in the 15 to 18 win range. 

Shooter McGavin

If they go into the season with your expectations, the staff has lost its way.  Last year was hopefully a one off. There were many reasons for it.  Poor returning talent evaluation by coaches, poor in game coaching decisions for half the year because of it and the best players being underclassmen with little to no experience).  I think they have addressed many of those those concerns with retention and the portal. Depth is a problem.  Need to be healthy.  But if healthy they should be better than 18 wins.  I am not taking the record last year as a baseline for improvement. We should all flush that down the toilet. 
TRGV

Captain Quette

Shooter. I was wrong with my predictions last year and could be again this year. A lot of unknown variables at this point generating a lot of different opinion on WL record for next year. I think what you suggest is very feasible, reasonable. After Kolek and Oso left, it has been a prolonged, slow decline. Will next year stop this trend.....TBD. Go Marquette!

Jay Bee

Quote from: Captain Quette on September 15, 2026, 08:17:36 PMAfter Kolek and Oso left, it has been a prolonged, slow decline. Will next year stop this trend.....TBD. Go Marquette!

To be fair (accurate), the year before last MU was 18-3 (9-1) and rolling post-Oso and Tyler.

JB. Good fact, hurting my thesis. I remember the good Ole days w fondness.

While last season has left an emotional scar for sure, I sincerely doubt there is any chance of a repeat.  The boys finished way better than they started last season.  The preseason T-Rank last year was 53.  This year it is 29.  Torvik has MU 4th behind St. Johns, U Conn and Villanova.  Turn the page fellas, going to be a good year. 20-12 overall and 12-8 in conference.  dancing in March again.

And where is Xavier in his list?

Then admitting that he forgot Michigan, and adding they would be 10-15 does not instill confidence. I like Marquette at 26, but we need to see other forecasters' lists that place us somewhere around there. I have trouble taking this guy very seriously.

Too small.   However, I can see somewhere between Nowell and Markus.  If he stays 5 years, I can envision him making a run at Howard's career points record.

If we finish as the 34th best team with the big east POY and finish 5th that'd be a wild big east season.

We will win some and lose some.  Overall better than last year but nowhere what we were the previous three seasons before last season.

"The team was hoping Chase Ross could take a leap and be the number one option. While he took the leap, it didn't translate as they thought it would, and other problems piled on as the season went on."  - No and No

Weird to not mention the early 'season ends' for Zaide and Sean... and to not mention the MASSIVE uncertainty with the married dude.

I rank this article, 'crappy'.

It's a psyop so Rick can poach all of our best players after the season.

I think the first place coach probably came from Hurley.......he has always respected MU

Agree Hurley always respects Marquette and feel it is either from Hurley or Pitino. Recall Pitino saying something like if I had to pick I would pick Marquette about a month ago.

I'm going with a compact version.

Non-con: lose to Michigan and Missouri, and win the rest, including UVA. 10-2.

BE: Split with SJU, Nova, X, PC, and Creighton. Sweep GT, Butler, DP, and SH. Be swept by UCONN. 13-7.

BET: 4 seed, 1-1

NCAA: 7 seed, 1-1

Regular season: 23-9

Total record: 25-11

Which means he also thinks we potentially have a low ceiling.
