I think we are capable of being a top 15 team, but top 15 teams are going to drop a fair share of road games against good competition. With this year's non-conference record, we would need to dominate our conference season to get in as an at large. The tougher the competition, the less likely that is.
Assume the following schedule - what would our likely record be and do you think we get in the dance as an at large:
@ St John's
#16 Villanova
Georgetown
@ Seton Hall
Providence
@ DePaul
#18 Butler
@ Georgetown
Seton Hall
@ #3 Villanova
DePaul
#5 Xavier
I would guess we would be 10-2 going into a final stretch of:
@ Marquette
@ Butler
Marquette
St John's
@ #20 Providence
@ #5 Xavier
I project a 3 & 3 finish. Total conference record of 13-5. Final record on 21-10 plus conference tournament.
Do we get in? Yes, with a couple of conference tournament wins
Are we ranked at the end of the year?
