Seeking6 Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 First glance.4 out of 5 away games in 14 days with lone Home game vs Purdue is a tough stretch. Single plays didn't work out well. With projected bottom teams we have 4 single plays vs them in Minnesota, Nebraska, Ohio St, and Penn St with 2 being on road at Nebraska and at Ohio St. Probably not enough time to digest yet. Some tough stretches in there for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get to beat Izzo twice again. With at Wisconsin, at Nebraska and at Ohio St in 3 of those. Not a good draw so far but it is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 I mean that 14 day stretch of 5 games....January 7th-21st with 4 on road at Wiscy, at Nebraska, H with Purdue at Sparty at Iowa?? I'd like to check out other teams schedules but that 11 days is brutal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a gift as well. Haven't looked at your schedule yet. People ask on this board why Archie/Hoosiers can't finish in top 6 this year? Take a look at schedule. Only team in league that has projected top 5 of 6 in double plays......and single plays with bottom 4 of 5. Brutal draw for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep it is for us especially with Hunter being out for some of those early games more than likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just beat the teams that is in the schedule and not worry about btjings we don't control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parakeet Jones Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 First read through I said 12-8. Second read through I said 10-10, so I’ll split it and say 11-9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just beat the teams that is in the schedule and not worry about btjings we don't control I get it and for the most part agree with your sentiments....but when you look at projected top teams (on paper) vs where we are (projected) this is a 3-4 win difference in scheduling. Shoot. Sparty got single games vs Illinois and Wisconsin and both are at home. Being consistent is all I ask. This isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUrocker Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 Digging through it a bit, I could see absolute best case 15-5 IF we can be as good as we hope, but also could definitely see 12-8 as a realistic outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started at 12-8 and started playing around with things given some of the travel and close games vs elite teams of conference. I'm right in that 11 range right now at best.

I’m usually too optimistic my first time through and then have to go back without the IU glasses on. It makes me throw up in my mouth a little that 12-8 was my optimistic number.

5 championships Posted November 19, 2020 Report Share Posted November 19, 2020 I wish we all could play twice like the old days so you wouldn’t have to worry about the schedule. Every year somebody gets an easier path to the championship. Same in football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steubenhoosier Posted November 19, 2020 Report Share Posted November 19, 2020 Play the schedule you’re given. No whining. Take it one game at a time. ”Woe is me” is for teams looking for excuses. Can’t wait to see this team and look forward to them outperforming the so called pundits. And, oh yeah. Covid may make this all irrelevant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great way to not to be scheduled 9 games against the top 5 is to be one of those top 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
