Pre-Conference Record Prediction

[rebelhoosier848891 9,588]

Now that the entire 2014-2015 Preconference Schedule has finally been released---what do you think our record will be heading into Big Ten season????

 

I predict:  11-2

 

I am going optimistic because of all the home and neutral site games. I think we upset UL because they are young and the boys will be fired up over the KJ move.  We will win the home games and lose to Georgetown (yet another Indiana guard--- Smith-Rivera goes off) and we lose one we should not--Butler (more Indiana players--don't shoot me!).

 

What you think and why??????

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,994]

10-3

Losses to Georgetown and Louisville and then one we shouldn't lose (Pitt, Butler, SMU, Texas Southern wink wink )

11-2; 3-2 against the "name" five.

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,994]

I hope the 11-2 predictions are right. I'd feel pretty good about that. Excited to see these young Hoosiers in action. I am super stoked to see Blackmon in competition. Really excited about Rob Johnson. And equally stoked about improvements for Stan, Troy, Hanner, Devin. Plus Yogi is a boss!!!!

Great core group.

Play the right guys Tom, pretty please.

And don't sub after MADE shots.

With no true road games--11-2.

[scots07 161]

Just to be contrary: 12 and 1. Our only loss in overtime! :wink:

[drewheck 749]

No reason we can't go 12-1 or even 13-0

[JaybobHoosier 11,954]

10-3 for this team. Team has way to many question marks coming into the season to give them too much hype. They have a lot of holes, so it just depends how they can hide them.

No matter what, I can't wait to watch every game!!!

Drewheck brings up a good point----when you break down each team we play by viewing their roster/returning players' stats--which I did--there are several bigger name teams who will be tough as usual--but there is not one with all seniors or all starters returning, etc. To be blunt----they do not have any better talent than we do and we can play with and beat any of them. Now--let's just hope we do!

Too many unknowns for me to confidently predict anything right now. I won't fall into the trap of overhyping a team like I did last year.

I predict we win one we shouldn't, Louisville, and lose one we shouldn't, Pitt.

Yes Jurkin--you're with me!  Go IU--- beat the Cardinals!

[rebelhoosier848891 9,588]

Ok Hoosier Nation---now that you've seen a little more of the team---anyone want to change or add their prediction to this thread?

 

As usual---I will give credit where credit is due at the end of the pre-conference season!

[TomPritchard25 526]

13-0. Good luck guarding NZ3 Yogi and Blackmon outside without leaving the middle wide for Troy. This year, we are the Huskies of Connecticut.

We lose 5 away B1G and 2 home.

Y O G I is THE BEST PG in CBB.

Trice from MSU will be begging to come off the floor!

If we beat Louisville I'll be happy

[CampHoosier 3,697]

If we take one of the GTown/Louisville/Pitt games, I will be more than pleased

[Kilroy 271]

Why am I always the lone pessimist that ends up being mostly right each year?

 

9-4.

9-4.

I really think 10-3, but I think we are more likely to be 11-2 than 9-4. And IF we are 9-4............oh boy!

[TheWatShot 14,396]

10-3. 

 

 

Losses to Georgetown, Louisville and Butler.
