IowaHoosierFan Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 I expect us to be slightly less that what the fan expect but much better than we were last year. I don't expect a S16 run or B1G title but I do expect to be competitive in most games we play this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Count me as skeptical on Nebrasketball and Wisconsin. I'll take a top 3 finish for us. These are the same types of clowns predicting top 3 finishes for Northwestern and Minny last year I suppose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btownqb Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 How could an EE8 be an honest "expectation" for this coming years team? Honestly that's quite a bit over the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll top 3 finish of big ten (somewhat because its down) and winning one game in the tourney. That's the expectation, as in anything less than that we weren't successful. I could easily see us going to the EE8 or SW16..but to say that's the expectation... c'mon now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADegenerate Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 After watching the DD vlog my expectations just jumped up just a little. He’s in much better shape than I was expecting and seems to be moving fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btownqb Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 Updated with Duke, Marquette, and Jacksonsville added We have 25 games set in stone as of now, I'll keep a running record of these and update my expectations and predictions accordingly: Home games only: Nebraska, Ohio State, Wisconsin, Louisville, Jacksonville, Marquette- I expect 6 wins. 6-0 Away games only: Maryland, Minnesota, Penn State, Duke- I'll say win @UM, PSU, @Mary lose @Duke 3-1 Neutral site: Butler- I expect to win, this will be a good game though (especially if Tucker can play). 1-0 Home/Home: Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Michigan State, Northwestern, Purdue, Rutgers 2 Wins- ILL, NW, Rutgers 1 win- Home Purdue, MSU, Iowa, UM 10-4 Brings my total to 20-5. Games @Iowa, @Mary, both Purdue, MSU, UM, and Butler are the "swing games" the 50-50 games. I realize Iowa isn't as good as us but they're still at home and are pretty good at home. We played 30 regular season games last year... so we are going to add 5 more games. I would say 3 of those will be cupcakes, 1 solid team (maybe Mississippi State or Arkansas level of team) and one more top notch game. UNC, UK, AZ, UCLA type team. Our non-conf breakdown would be: 4 cupcakes- 4 games Marquette and another team at this level.- 2 games UL and Butler- 2 games Duke and another team at this level- 2 games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way. When it is all said and done, I think we win the conference title. On every single night we will have the best player on the court, and on most nights the best 2 players.

Danomatic Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 I can absolutely see us winning the conference and making a deep tourney run... but that isn’t the expectation. We’re expected to finish top 4 in conference and make the tournament, winning a game or two along the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex must have had a couple after another White Sox injury or loss and did this list. In terms of IU. I don't see us winning it but safely in top 2-4 range.

Hoosierhoopster Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 I see Iowa and MD as too low, maybe OSU, and Wisconsin as too high, though we’ll see to what extent getting healthy helps Wisc’s cause. Not sure about MSU, those are big departures.We seem about right at this point around 4, as an early projection. How on the ball play - the point - develops will be key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Individuals can make massive differences in basketball. It's hard to beat a team that has the two best players on the floor and a good supporting cast around them.

I think he’s making a bold prediction, but I won’t be surprised if it happens. It’s Wisconsin; except for last year when they were devastated by injuries they always seem to out perform expectations. Oh yeah....Ethan Happ too...a safe prediction to be B1G POY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Ethan Happ(yes, he’s good) wins B1G player of the year, I’ll be disappointed. I honestly believe that Juwan and/or Romeo will be two of the top 3 players in the league next year. Not taking anything away from Happ, because he’s really good. I just don’t see it. I also don’t buy into Wisky being a top 3 team... I have them around 5th or 6th. We shall see...
