I'll go.

We get off to a bumpy start going 1-3 against our slate of major conference foes and struggling on the road early in the B1G. But after returning from back to back road games against IU and MSU in late January we start to put things together as we rattle off 6+ wins in a row.

We finish 3rd in the conference but by March we're playing like a top 10 team in the country. We enter the tournament with 22 wins, good enough for a 4 seed. We make it to the Sweet 16 where we come up just short against the #1 overall seed.

KJ goes pro as expected but we think we have a good shot at keeping Riley for another year if we can secure a big enough bag.

I could see most of that, but 22 wins will not get you a 4 seed. More like a 6-7 seed at best.

No prediction yet, but generally young teams don't travel well. I'm expecting conference road games to be much tougher than what I perceive to be the consensus.

I'm going to say 23-10 overall, 13-7 in conference.
And yes, I know I've got some tinted (orange) glasses on.
But its what I believe

To do that, we'd have to go 9-2 in non-con and that's great. But if we go 9-2 in non-con, then we might do a little better than 13-7 in the B1G.
