Record Next Five Games?

[Shocker1976]

Great. Get ready for an 0-5 or 1-4 stretch everyone...

Actually MKR I prepared three different scenarios for the Shockers' season:

1. Optimistic perfect season: 28-3, losses to Michigan, Houston and Memphis

2. Hopeful: 24-7

3. Likely: 20-11, with additional losses to Arizona, Missouri, Okie State, UCF, Cincinnati, Houston, Memphis and SMU

I am still rooting for the Optimistic Perfect Season, go Shockers!!

Where did the other game go?

KSU decides they want to stay home instead.

[WuShock Reaper]

I went with 4-1.
Vegas is 1-1
Beat Missouri, Oklahoma State, and Kansas State

However, let’s not go next five, let’s go the rest of the nonconference scheduled. If:
we "WIN VEGAS" we will be in the range of 26-30 – “Others Receiving Votes” for the AP Poll on 11/22;
we beat Missouri and we will be in the Top 21-25 AP Poll AP Poll on 11/29;
we beat Oklahoma State and Kansas State we will be in the Top 16-20 AP Poll on 12/06;
we beat Norfolk State and Alcorn State we will be in the Top 11-15 AP Poll on 12/13;
we beat North Texas we will be in the Top 11-15 AP Poll on 12/20; and
we beat Prairie View A&M we will be in the Top 10 or better AP Poll on 12/27.

And if all this happens look for Memphis to bring their Top 5 AP Ranking to the Roundhouse for a Matchup of Top 10 teams on JANUARY 1ST ON CBS SPORTS at 11:00am.

GO SHOCKERS!!!

I don't think this kind of optimistic thinking is allowed on SN anymore.

That game could be the highlight of the Cats season if they were to win. And might save a coach's job.

I sure hope you are right...

Realism tells me 2-3

[shock-it-to-me]

I put 3-2 but I think it’s simple. Our defense is excellent and our rebound and loose ball gathering is much improved. Free-throw shooting has been excellent so far. I think that keeps us in most games. Any game we shoot 40% from three and have 10 or less turnovers, I give us a 99% chance of winning. Probably will be plenty of games where we don’t hit those marks though

This is the true story of one stranger picked to post on a message board, to watch games and have his opinion documented - to find out what happens when he stops being polite and starts getting real.

Lets just 0-1 these games, one game at a time, okay?

Can't look forward too much, otherwise you might over-estimate your opponent!
