Uconn 2 times

I think that I would go 23-8, but I think we will split with UCONN, Memphis, SMU, lose 2 to Louisville, lose to New Mexico, Pitt, ?.

You are off on the numbers of games, there are 13 OOC games and 18 conference games for a total of 31. Another bearcattalk thread blunder....

 

[Bearcat_NTS]

For me-
@New Mexico, Xavier, Pittsburgh and NC State: 2-2

Temple (1-1), UConn x2 (1-1), Memphis x2 (1-1), Louisville x2 (0-2): 3-5

1-2 other upsets

22-9 regular season, bubble team...

Boy is it weird being in the AAC now. I saw the first poster's 21-6 record prediction and thought "Wow you're nuts!" But then I looked at the schedule that is nothing like they used to be, and thought "Actually, that's definitely possible." I'll guess 7 losses.

I'm not going to try to predict every game because, well, that's impossible. Buuut...

I think we lose 2 games out-of-conference to either Pitt, N.C. State, New Mexico, or Xavier. We go 12-6 in conference... 2-4 against UConn, Memphis, and Louisville and we will pick up 2 losses somewhere out of Temple, UCF, and SMU. So, 23-8 (12-6) and somewhere around an 8-10 seed in the NCAA tournament. I wouldn't be shocked if there's a clunker in there somewhere against one of the bottom feeders in our conference, so 22-9 isn't out of the question.

I think UC goes 23-8 and is playing it's best basketball in March.

I like that prediction. To be honest this is a year where I have no muhfuggin idea what to expect. Talent level is higher. A lot of young guys look to get minutes. Who has actually progressed enough to make a significant impact compared to last year? Sanders? JD3? Thomas? Rubles? Jackson? Just have no earthly clue what to expect from this years team compared to those over the last few. Could be fun. Could be a train wreck. Interested to see what the identity of this team is come March.

I think we can expect close to 20 ppg from SK, 10 for both Rubles (don't shoot ANY 3's) and Lawrence. The rest of the team who knows? Kind of exciting though to see who emerges. I say 10 for Lawrence on comparison to Lance Stephenson (highly rated "one/two and done" Averaged around 12 ppg)
