I'm being ultra-conservative. I think this team is a 25-26 win team skillwise, but freshmen hardly ever live up to the full potentials.If Nick Kellogg, Ricardo Johnson and T.J. Hall deal with adversity in their first season as well as D.J. Cooper did (that's asking a whole bunch, by the way) and if Baltic and Keely make the next step to above average MAC big men, this team could roll through the MAC. But no one ever seems to just roll through the MAC. But Ohio has as good of a shot as anyone in the conference to get back to the Big Dance.

Also, I'll be very disappointed if we lose more than one home game this year. That should be 19 guaranteed wins. Lets remind the MAC and the rest of the country why the Convo is so frickin' hard to play in for visiting teams!

I doubt we will go 18-0 at home, and I doubt we will be 3-10 on the road/vegas. Probably more like 16-2 and 5-8, but on a game by game basis, this is the strategy I am going with. The cynic in me, after years of seeing the MAC favorite struggle every single year, sees us struggling much of the year. The biased fan in me sees us doing MUCH better than this with the personnel and coaches we have. Regardless, I sure am excited.

I hope I'm wrong, but this team seems overrated to me. There are only two dependable scorers on the roster in Coop and Tommy, our front court isn't good enough to overcome the severe lack of depth and inexperience we have in the backcourt, and our coach hasn't yet proven he can even go .500 in MAC play. The loss of Coleman was a killer. Next year will hopefully be brighter with added depth and experience.

I don't think it was ever officially counted last year, but I'm fairly certain I had the best record when it was all said and done. My picks weren't a complete success though, since we fell a tad short of the Sweet Sixteen I called for...

Anyway, if it's not broke, don't fix it... I'll stay optimistic about this season.

Okay... I admit that overall record seems a bit crazy, and the tourney was probably to one-up the last poster...

BUT, our OOC schedule is awesome. It's simply awesome. We don't lose OOC games at home, we just don't, and we've got a ton of them scheduled. Check the facts, one last year, before that?  It was a couple seasons back. We're going to come into MAC play ranked with the target the size of Everest. That is where I get nervous about my picks... We're going to drop a few, and those are tough to call, other then any road game (likely against the MAC East, but Ball St. scares me)...

It's going to be fun though. I won't deny I have high hopes...  And I might not leave my apartment after a loss... And I definitely won't have the stomach to come on this board after a loss... But that's okay! Last year's run shows why it's all worth it!

I've seen crazier things happen.

Optimist, please tell us why you think our OOC schedule is "awesome"? With the exception of Kansas, it doesn't help us one bit come selection time. MAC teams must play and beat teams above their level to get at large bids and rankings. This schedule does not help with that.

Temple would help. And there are some midmajors on there which will likely have very good RPIs.

This schedule has plenty of quality high mid-majors, and we see many at home. If we do very well against this schedule, and don't completely bomb in the MAC, we will have a very good resume come years end. This schedule is way better then Akron's from a couple of years ago, but we absolutely have a chance to pull off a similar win/loss record...

Look deeper then the name, we've got some teams who could really help our RPI. If we can manage to beat Temple, we've got a quality win as well.... Again, that is our marquee game, and it is home!! Playing Kansas tough would be icing on the cake. Bracketbuster could be huge if we do well before that as well...

I guess that's why they call you the Optimist. I don't agree. The MAC as a conference is already slotted as middle of the road, at best. Playing a bunch of teams that are considered to be at your level, even if you beat them, doesn't help elevate your status. If we win every game you will have earned your moniker. We may have a great year, but don't expect us to be ranked.
