2023-24 Prediction League - Game 14 at Nebraska Wed 1/3/24 9pm BTN

[LIHoosier 27,269]

The New Year begins and the ish gets real.

How this works!!!

Each week I will create Prediction League threads for the weeks game(s).

It's a simple concept:

Each game you start with 100 points (only if a prediction is made, otherwise 0 points for the game)
+25 PTs if you guess the winner
-25 PTs if you pick the loser
+10 PTs if guess IU score correctly
+10 PTs if guess Opponent score correct
-The # of points different between the actual and predicted score of IU (over/under doesn't matter)
-The # of points different between the actual and predicted score of opponent (over/under doesn't matter)

*** Reminder if you post a prediction and want to change it, please just POST a NEW Prediction, do not edit a prior post as I may miss those edits.

The person with the most points (MINUS 2 LOWEST GAMES) at the end of the season wins

From now on they all really count.

The nuts and bolts are starting to loosen and fall off: 

1.  This game is at Nebraska and it is particularly hard to win on the road in the BIG10.  We usually play poorly there.

2.  Missing Johnson at the point and, if he comes back, will he be game ready?

3.  Mgbako tweaked a knee and missed the second half of our last game.

4.  Ware missed the last game with illness.  Will he play or will he be able to play his best.

5.  With Cupp at the point we are playing 4 on 5 on offense.

6.  Next man up can only take us so far.  The lack of bench and fatigue will start to hurt.

We can win this one but probably won't.

All fair and probably most likely— but I’d add a couple keys

- if Mast is out that’s their leading rebounder and a top scorer.

- Flip side, Ware is by far our leading rebounder, we’re a surprisingly weak rebounding team (Malik needs to rebound better and soon). If he’s out I think we’ll get killed on the glass. If he plays he’s a real mismatch, he’s stepping out and hitting really well, and he’s almost at 10 boards a game. We need Ware in this one imo. Hope X plays too
