good news re: conference predictions

[auggiebc]

ACCsports.com has us 11th
Pomeroy predicts we finish last with 4-12 record
RPI predictor has us finishing last with 5-11 record

the good news? BC typically finishes near the top of the conference when the prognosticators predict us being bad (in both sports).

What you all say we finish?

BC will win 8 conference games minimum. No more than 10. They simply can't beat Clempsun, and they will lose to Duke and UNC this year. Will lose 1-3 toss up games.

12th.

i see around 8-8. Unfortunately its going to take 10 to make the tourney.

There are a bunch of mediocre teams in the ACC this year. I say 7 or 8 wins.

Hello NIT!

I bet we get 8 wins from the remaining schedule to give us 9 and our crap loses to start the season will keep us out.

@ Clemson, @ Duke - We'll split these games. Clemson is an awful match-up but I think Al may give us the A coaching game in one we need.
vs. Md, @ Miami, @ VT - We'll go 2-1 here. Have to beat MD at home and we'll split on the road, Miami and VT are medicore IMO
vs. Clemson, vs. Duke, vs. FSU - 2-1 here. We'll beat Duke @ Conte again and suprise FSU who always plays like shit in our building (in basketball at least)
@ Wake, @ FSU - 1-1.
vs. UNC, vs. VT, @ GT - This is a brutal stretch, we'll go 1-2 here but could surpise GT or UNC.
vs. UVA and @ NCST - 2-0, these teams fucking blow.

I'm seeing 9-7 + or - 1 game. Win 1 in the ACCT, get to 20 wins and eek out an 11 seed.

Or this team will completely tank it and we'll rock it at like 4-12 or 3-13.

I just don't see us going 3-2 against Duke x2, Clemson x2, and FSU. It's possible but I highly doubt it. Hope I'm wrong.

I'm far from sold on FSU and we get a home-in-home with them. Duke is very very good this year but we get a crack at them in Conte which will be rocking for that game and it's about time for Clemson's annual tank job.

These predictions are based on BC actually playing to their ability and Skinner giving me some good in-game coaching efforts.
