[QUOTE="MrOizo, post: 1259824, member: 66798"] Diving into this further, aren't there quite a few Big Ten teams that we should be well built for? Not tOSU, Purdue, Wisconsin, Maryland, IU, Michigan, or MSU. The good news? With our amazing schedule, we only play those teams 6 more times. With the interior size and experience, the ability of Malcolm to get to the foul line, the solid shooting, and the experience of our main guards we should be a tough out in every other game where we are shooting decent. We need road wins though, and that's always trouble... Here's the path to 10-8 for me. It won't play out this way, but any home wins against the top 7 conference teams would make up for losses on the road to the bottom half: @Indiana L Michigan L Maryland L @Purdue L @Michigan L Iowa W @Penn State W Wisconsin L Minnesota W @NWestern W Penn State W @Iowa W NWestern W @Nebraska W MSU L @Rutgers W [/QUOTE]
